About this place
Bollyang Mission Station is a Catholic mission community in Songchi-dong, Gwangsan-gu, Gwangju, belonging to Imgok-dong Parish in the Archdiocese of Gwangju. The archdiocese records its establishment on 1960-08-10 and confirms that it continues as a local faith community.
A Korean Catholic gongso, or mission station, is a local community smaller than an independent parish, where Catholics gather for prayer and communal faith life under the pastoral care of a mother parish. Bollyang Mission Station helps Catholics living away from the parish center remain connected with one another and with Imgok-dong Parish.
The site is therefore best understood not as an independent parish church with a resident priest, but as a local prayer place and faith community belonging to Imgok-dong Parish. Its continuity since 1960 is central to the meaning of the place.
