Wonsan University of Agriculture (Wonsan)

 university, college of agriculture

(원산농업대학/元山農業大學)
This is a post-secondary level institution where students specialize in farming science and agriculture and food production, as well as the study of geology and mineral sciences. Its five-year program is the largest in North Korea. This campus was originally home to the Tokwon Benedictine Abbey, a territorial abbey which administered the area around Wonsan. The property was confiscated after WWII, and in 1948 the current university was established. Despite some bombing in both WWII and the Korean War, most of the former seminary buildings, including the chapel, are still standing, though they are obviously no longer used for religious purposes. The second picture shows Kim Jong-il standing in front of the former Seminary building.
