About this place

Located in Suwon, the Haewoojae (House of the Toilet Master) is a one-of-a-kind building shaped like a giant toilet—claimed to be the world's largest toilet sculpture. Inside, you'll find exhibits exploring toilet use across different cultures and an array of curious sculptures. A genuinely unusual place to visit if you want something entirely different from typical tourist attractions.

Special Exhibition 2F (Golden Piggy Bank)

The second floor of Haewoojae hosts the temporary special exhibition 'Golden Poo Bank' (2025), a playful and educational installation exploring the medical value of human gut bacteria through the metaphor of a deposit bank. Visitors are greeted by large cartoon characters that set the tone for a tour where microbiome science is presented in an accessible and participatory manner. What to see here includes interactive displays that make complex biological concepts engaging for all ages.
