About this place
Hongdo 1 Mission Station is an island Catholic community at 21 Hongdo 1-gil, Heuksan-myeon, Sinan County, belonging to Heuksan Parish in the Archdiocese of Gwangju. The archdiocese records it as established on June 1, 1959 and serving the southern part of Hongdo.
Heuksan Parish serves a network of island mission stations, and archdiocesan material describes the pastoral reality of priests traveling by boat to care for these communities. Hongdo 1 functions within this network as a local center for Catholics in southern Hongdo.
The site is therefore not an independent parish church, but an island mission community belonging to Heuksan Parish, with continuity since 1959 forming its central identity.
