Jeonuihyanggyo Confucian School is thought to have been built in 1413 during the 13th year of King Taejong’s reign. The school features a simple spatial arrangement with only Myeongnyundang and Daeseongjeon Study Halls, each with three gates in the front. Outside the western wall of Myeongnyundang Hall is Sujiksa Temple.

Several books – Jaeimnok, Seonan, several texts on rituals, and Eojeyuneum (1782-1783), which was published in 1782 (6th year of King Jeongjo’s reign) and 1783, have been found at Jeonui Hyanggyo.
