The Jupil Spider Museum was founded on September 1, 1985 and named after Dr. Kim Ju-pil, a Dongguk University biology professor who travels all around the world to collect and study spiders. The museum aims to be a fundamental education center for students by offering them various hands-on scientific activities.
The museum has two buildings: a main building and an annex. The first floor of the main buliding houses arachnid specimens, a spider breeding room, and fossils. The second floor has about 1,000 specimens of insects, including butterflies, moths and beetles. Inside the annex, rare minerals, fish and shellfish specimens are on display. At the observation station on the second floor of the annex, visitors can view the spider anatomy through the microscope.
