덕수궁의 정문. 본래 정문은 궁 남쪽 ‘인화문’이었는데, 도심이 궁 동쪽으로 옮겨가자 동문인 '대안문'을 정문으로 삼았다. 1904년 덕수궁 대화재로 일부 타버린 것을 수리하면서 대한문으로 명칭을 바꾸었다.
The main gate of Deoksugung. Originally, the main gate was 'Inhwamun' to the south of the palace, but as the city center moved eastward, the east gate 'Daeanmun' was designated as the main gate. In 1904, after part of it was burnt down in the great Deoksugung fire, it was repaired and renamed to Daehanmun.
