This study aims to reexamine the historical significance and sense of place of the Hwangtohyeon historic site in Jeongeup and to propose a comprehensive maintenance plan based on this analysis. It begins from the recognition that the existing site, developed in 1980s through shrine-centered monumentalization, has not fully reflected the spirit of the Donghak Peasant Revolution. Accordingly, the study reconceptualizes the battlefield not as a single location on the map but as an experiential landscape encompassing a broader spatial context. Through site analysis, case studies, and a review of existing heritage conservation approaches, an integrated plan is proposed that connects the historic site, memorial park, and surrounding topography. The study suggests a new direction for historic site conservation and demonstrates the potential for creating commemorative spaces that integrate historical authenticity with contemporary use.
