Remains of Sojin Fort, an earthen castle during the Imjin Patriotic War, were found and ascertained in Sangam-ri, Kangnam County of Pyongyang.

Now, its walls remain in the high places in the east and the north of the hill, and only traces are seen in the low places in the west and the south.

The remains of the fort are about 1,010 metres around. Relics were unearthed there, including pieces of chinaware and earthenware used by contemporary people.

The Archaeological Society of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea recognized the great historic significance of the remains of the Sojin Fort during the period of the feudal Joson dynasty discovered in Sangam-ri of Kangnam County. The Non-PermanentTangible Heritage Examination and Appraisal Committee evaluated the remains and registered them as the ones to be preserved.
