The Buddhist temple Hwangnyongsa was built in 553 and the Pagoda was erected later by Great Noble Priest Jajang (590–658) who studied in China during the Tang period. The nine stories of the pagoda represent the nine countries near the border of the Silla Dynasty.

It was believed that this Pagoda could defend Korea against the invaders. It was utterly destroyed by a fire in 1238 during the Mongolian invasion furring the Goryeo Era.
