The Former Gyonam YMCA Building in Daegu is a historic place where the local pro-independent movement leaders had meetings around the time of the March First Movement in 1919 when Korea was under Japanese colonial rule. The building had also been used as a venue for various patriotic activities based on Christian belief such as the Korean Production Movement, Christian Farming Movement, and New Korea Society Movement. It is a two-storied, red brick building built in 1914 characterized by some distinctive architectural elements of the URM buildings built in the 1920s and 1930s, such as stucco cornice applied between the first and second stories and rectangular windows with arch lintels.
