This stone pagoda stands on a two-tiered platform that displays column-shaped inscriptions on the four corners and the center of each side. Each corner of the body also shows column-shaped inscriptions. Each roof stone, which is gently sloped, has a four-tiered bottom. The edges of the roof stones are held up slightly. The stupa finial is composed of bokbal (overturned bowl), lotus flower-shaped ornaments, magic bead placed on the support, and canopy. As a pagoda built in the early Goryeo Period (918-1392), it follows the style of the Unified Silla Period (676-935). This is one of the few remaining stone pagodas that have kept the stupa finial in good condition. Each part shows refined workmanship. When the pagoda was dismantled for repair in 1981, sarira reliquary pieces and 108 miniature pagodas were found from the inside of the platform.
