About this place

Daebong Parish (대봉 성당) is a parish of the Catholic Archdiocese of Daegu in Daebong-dong, Jung-gu, with Saint John the Baptist as its patron. Listed in the archdiocese’s official parish directory, it is a regular territorial parish serving Catholics in Daebong-dong and the southeastern part of central Daegu through Mass, the sacraments, catechesis, and parish community life.

Daebong-dong lies where central Daegu connects with residential neighborhoods, and the parish is a local center where Catholics can continue liturgical and sacramental life close to their everyday surroundings. Centered on devotion to its patron saint and the regular worship of the parish, children, young people, and adults learn the faith and form a community together as a basic unit of the local Church.

History & origins

According to the official records of the Archdiocese of Daegu, Daebong Parish was established on November 3, 1955, with Saint John the Baptist as its patron. This establishment date is the firm chronological point showing that the Catholic community of Daebong-dong became a formal parish during the period when central Daegu was being reorganized and expanded after the Korean War.

This research prioritized the archdiocese’s parish records and other publicly available official materials, but no separate official source was found that reliably documents a preceding mission-station phase, the process of separation from a mother parish, or the construction and dedication dates of the first church. The historical account is therefore centered on the verified parish establishment in 1955.
