Showing Data Points related to the date/period 1241

The parochial church of 'Ancient Brasov,' situated near Sprenghi Hill, is the oldest historical monument in the town. It was rebuilt after the Tartar invasion of 1241 and combines early Gothic architectural elements with a basilica-like layout, featuring three connected aisles, a transept, and a choir with a polygonal apse. The church's sanctuary and extensions exhibit characteristic narrow windows with circular poly-lobe rosaries and carved stone details in the Cistercian architectural style. Ottoman attacks in 1421 and 1438 led to the reconstruction of the vaults in the aisles and transept. Further renovations occurred between 1634 and 1663, and two towers were initially planned on the western side, with only one being completed in its current form in 1842. Additionally, a neo-Gothic parochial house was constructed in 1905.

Chokseongnu Pavilion is a symbol of Jinju which is often regarded along its surroundings as a top scenic site in the entire Yeongnam region. The pavilion building has undergone several repariment and reconstruction works since it was first built by the Magistrate of Jinju named Kim Ji-dae (1190-1266) in 1241 when Goryeo was under the rule of King Gojong. It was used as a command post during war times and a favorite leisure venue among literati elites during the times of peace. While the name Chokseongnu came from the soaring stone peaks around it, it is also known by other names such as Namjangdae Command Post or Jangwollu Pavilion. The original building was destroyed by a fire during the Japanese Invasion of Korea in 1591, but rebuilt in 1618 by a military commander Nam I-heung (1576-1627) to exhibit an even grandeur appearance. The building was designated as a National Treasure in 1948, but burnt down in 1950 during the Korean War. The current building was built by the Jinju Historic Sites Preservation Association in 1960 using funds raised by the government and citizens. It features a structure of five kan (a unit of measurement referring to the distance between two columns) on the front and four kan on both sides, and has a hipped-and-gable roof. The breathtaking view of the pavilion with its surroundings has made it one of the two most famous pavilions in the country, the other being Bubyeongnu in Pyeongyang, and extensively praised by renowned artists in their poems and paintings. There are in the pavilion many plaques inscribed with old records including Chokseongnugi (A Record of Chokseongnu) by Ha Ryun (1347-1416).
