Panmunjeom
Panmunjeom (
P'anmunjŏm; 판문점) is a village on the border between
North and
South Korea, where the
1953 armistice that ended the
Korean War was signed. The building where the armistice was signed still stands, and straddles the Military Demarcation Line, which runs through the middle of the
Demilitarized Zone.
