A novel Lactobacillus plantarum strain ATG-K2, ATG-K6 or ATG-K8 and a composition for the prevention or treatment of vaginitis containing the same are proposed. The Lactobacillus plantarum strain ATG-K2, ATG-K6 or ATG-K8 has excellent antimicrobial effects against various pathogenic strains as well as Candida albicans and Gardnerella vaginalis, which are vaginitis pathogens, and thus can be easily used as a composition for the treatment of bacterial vaginosis, vaginal candidiasis, etc., or as a functional health food for the prevention or amelioration of these diseases.
