Cheongpung Mangwolsanseong Fortress (淸風望月山城), also called Cheongpung Seongyeolseong, is a fortress located in Cheongpung-myeon, Jecheon, North Chungcheong Province. As its name changed several times in the past, it was registered as a cultural property under the name Mangwolsanseong (望月山城). Originally the Baekje fortress of Seongyeol, the town wall of Seongyeol-hyeon where Ureuk was born, it was transposed into Mangwolsanseong during the Japanese colonial period.
