About this place
Jangheung Catholic Church is a parish church of the Archdiocese of Gwangju at 25-18 Mullebangatgan-gil, Jangheung-eup, Jangheung County, within the Central-Southern district. The archdiocese records the parish as established on December 31, 1965, with St. Elizabeth as its patron.
Since the mid-1960s, the parish has served Catholics in Jangheung-eup and surrounding areas through Mass, the sacraments, catechesis, and community life. Its current address and parish identity match the official archdiocesan record.
Jangheung Catholic Church is therefore a local parish under the patronage of St. Elizabeth, with the continuity of parish worship and pastoral life since 1965 forming its central identity.
