다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This article examines the function and operation of Dogyongsanseong Fortress(禿用山城), located in Seongju(星州), focusing on literature data from the late Joseon Dynasty. The construction of Dogyongsanseong Fortress was raised once during the reign of King Injo(仁祖), who suffered three external invasions and wars. However, what was actually construction was the reign of King Sukjong(肅宗), which has passed about 30 years. The construction of Dogyongsanseong Fortress is related to the change from the town wall(邑城)-centered defense system in the early Joseon Dynasty to the mountain fortress(山城)-centered defense system after the war, and the operation and development of mountain fortress during the reign of King Injo and King Sukjong. Dogyongsanseong Fortress was one of the six mountain fortresses built in Yeongnam area(嶺南) and served as a defense for the country and region.
The fact that Dogyongsanseong Fortress actually operated as a defense base can be found in the process of suppressing the rebellion that occurred in 1728 (戊申亂). Dogyongsanseong Fortress was located in a location connecting the areas where the rebellion broke out in Gyeongsang-do(慶尙道) and Jeolla-do(全羅道). At this time, the contents of Dogyongsanseong Fortress's soldiers' activities can be found not only in the history books compiled by the state but also in individual diaries(日記).
Dogyongsanseong Fortress not only had a defense function, but also stored grain to prepare for war, and in a famine, it served as a source of grain to help the people. On the geography and map, it can be seen that there was a warehouse for storing grain in Dogyongsanseong Fortress, and the size of grain stored can be estimated through economic data. As such, since its construction in the mid-17th century, Dogyongsanseong Fortress has functioned as a defense for the state and region in the 18th century, and it has suffered operational difficulties due to financial difficulties, but its importance has continued until the late 19th century.
