The stone pillar-shaped monument says it was erected in Kobe City in February 1954. The anchor-shaped and book-opening-shaped monuments are said to have been erected in October 1968, and were erected by the prefecture to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Hyogo prefectural government. 🔲Please refer to the last photo with the map. ■Continue after the chronology (mainly excerpts from Kaishu) September 1855: Kichibei Amiya invests his own money to complete Funata Deba in Kobe Village.

On the same day, Edo Castle was surrendered bloodlessly. ■It was the 3rd year of Keio (1867), a tumultuous year that could not be recorded in the chronology.The Choshu conquest and the assassination of Ryoma were bloody.In Kobe, the shogunate had requisitioned Kichibei Amiya's portage yard and Kaishu Kobe's private residence.It was closed down. The opening of Kobe Port was hurried, including a naval training ground and a shipping yard, and at the same time, as required by the treaty, the construction of a foreign settlement was also hurriedly established.The following year, in January 1868, Kobe Port opens. On the 27th of the same month, the Boshin War begins. - 10 months at the training center, Ryoma is 31 years old. Ah, how short it is, but the significance of its existence is great. Because it is short, it is precious and unforgettable and shines. This anchor-shaped monument is large. The place is small. If you stop, it will sometimes obstruct pedestrian traffic. However, I can see the consideration given to building walls to give way to historic sites. I think this is a positive result of the earthquake recovery efforts as a whole.The monument to Kichibei Amiya is in a good location, and it would be difficult to find it anywhere else. ■Origin from the ruins of the Kobe Naval Training Center [The inscription is as follows] In January 1860, the shogunate officially dispatched a diplomatic mission to the United States. As the captain of the Kanrin Maru (300 tons), Kaishu Katsu fulfilled the great responsibility of escorting the group and learning maritime techniques while battling the waves of thousands of miles. This was the first Japanese to cross the Pacific Ocean, and it was a remarkable feat in the history of Japanese voyages. In April 1863, the public opinion of the expulsion of the Joi finally gave rise to an emergency, and Tokugawa Iemochi patrolled the Hanshin coast for defense against the Setsukai. At that time, Kaishu was in charge of a warship magistrate, and he accompanied them, emphasizing that Kobe Port was a good natural port and a key port for national defense. This led to the establishment of a naval training center here in Onohama. The Kobe Naval Training Center was a large-scale organization that combined a military academy, an engineering school, and a naval arsenal. Katsu tried to gather the world's talents here, lay the foundation for the Japanese Navy, and create a base for overseas development. Looking up at the high winds, he counted the many 200 brilliant men who came to study here, including Ryoma Sakamoto, Munemitsu Mutsu, and Yu Ito. It produced many talented people such as Takashi. In 1864, some of the trainees participated in the Kinmon Incident as an anti-shogunate force, and Kaishu was accused of training zealots and was dismissed, and the training center was closed the following year in 1865. It has become unavoidable that it will be closed for the month. At that time, the naval training ground was located in a rectangular moat area of ​​about 10,000 square meters, extending eastward from this ``memorial anchor'' and overlooking the main customs building from Kyobashi-zume to the south. Unfortunately, it is now buried under the Hanshin Expressway and there is no way to remember the grand sights of those days. The only relief I can get now is that I can look up at the inscription written by Kaishu Katsu, who watches over this place from a distance in Suwayama Park. We hereby dedicate this monument to those who remember those days and love their hometown. Taken in October 1963 Hyogo Prefecture Governor Motohiko Kanai Mayor of Kobe Chujiro Haraguchi Kobe Chamber of Commerce and Industry Chairman Chohei Asada Donated by Yoshio Shusuzaki Yonekichi Ono

The students here must have been very ambitious and engaged in daily training and lectures. While looking at this stone monument, I remembered the time when even small-time workers went to seafaring school, although the times were different, and I felt sorry for the difference in their aspirations. I think we probably studied about the same content for about half of the curriculum then and now, but our aspirations, drive, and guts were completely different. Every day at my small job, I kept thinking, ``I'll finish it early~💦'' and ignored class. The seniors are amazing! I never got to the point where learning is fun.

The journey to follow in the footsteps of Ryoma Sakamoto is very interesting. Just a quick thought Kochi Kyoto Nagasaki Kobe Tokyo Good for those days, good for you! Japan is large The world is also big.

It is said that there was a naval training center nearby that was established by Professor Kaishu Katsu at the request of the Edo Shogunate. It's a very interesting place if you know the historical background.

After having delicious Chinese food at the Sannomiya Ichiro main store, I visited "Kobe Naval Training Center" which I wanted to see (^^). Kobe Naval Academy (Katsujuku) was a naval officer training institution established in Kobe at the end of the Edo period on the recommendation of Kaishu Katsu, where Ryoma Sakamoto also studied seamanship. I am deeply moved to think that Kaishu Katsu and Ryoma Sakamoto were here😌😌😌. . This time, I felt a revolution in taste as I was trained on my taste by the 🐴 Chinese food at Sannomiya Ichiro (lol).

On the way to Shinko No. 1 Jetty, I visited the Kobe Naval Training Center Monument, which I had been interested in since the days of [Ryomaden].

日本海軍の礎がここで生まれたとのご意見もあるでしょうが、実際は大日本帝国海軍とは別モノの組織でした。事実、発足して1年ちょいで閉鎖されたし。ただ、のちの坂本龍馬の亀山社中→海援隊の原型となったという見方はできると思います。やはりここは歴史が動いた舞台でした。 それにしても、なんか記念碑がポツーンと立ってるだけな感じ。ここに勝海舟や坂本龍馬(と、陸奥宗光もか？)の像でも建ったら印象変わるんでしょうけど。

色々な説明もあり良いのですが、もう少し大きめに展示スペースなど欲しいと思いました。

▼When you hear the name Naval Training Center, many people think, ``Oh, it's Ryoma Sakamoto!'' This famous place is located between the Minato and Motomachi downtown areas of Kobe. (The hotel you can see behind me in the photo is Hotel Okura, and Motomachi is just down the street in front of you towards the mountain (Mt. Rokko).) ▼ ``These days, I became a disciple of the military scholar Katsuraintaro Daisensei, and he was loved by me...I put on a slightly arrogant face and secretly asked him to come.Ahem, ahem,'' he wrote a humorous letter to his sister. Ryoma Sakamoto, who sent the training center, will go out of his way to raise funds for the establishment of this training center. ▼As stated in the letter, the idea was Kaishu Katsu, a high-ranking official of the shogunate at the time. Kaishu took the 14th Shogun, Iemochi Tokugawa, on board the warship Jundomaru, explained the need for a navy, and obtained permission to open the Kobe Naval Training Center. ▼However, the money donated by the shogunate was not enough to cover the operation of the training center, so Ryoma was able to open it by borrowing 1,000 ryo from Shungaku Matsudaira of the Fukui clan. ▼It seems that the ``ahem, ahem'' letter I mentioned earlier was written right after this construction was completed, but even though Ryoma was just a ronin, he was truly a man with great mediation skills. ▼This naval training center was opened by Kaishu Katsu as its director for the purpose of operating the Kanrin Maru, a warship of the Shogunate. Kaishu Katsu was also an interesting person, and in this small fishing village, he would like to thank the people who took care of him. ``The Shogunate will succumb to external pressure, and Kobe will eventually open a port in this area. Buy the land now,'' he said, a statement that could hardly be believed to be from an important member of the Shogunate. Those who actually bought the land ended up making a lot of money (lol). ▼Furthermore, although they were important members of the shogunate, they also attracted many anti-shogunate patriots. Well, you can see it by looking at the way he has faith in Ryoma Sakamoto. ▼When the ``Kinmon Incident'' broke out in Kyoto, the shogunate saw the fact that there were many anti-shogunate patriots as a problem and closed the training center. Kaishu Katsu was dismissed from office, and Ryoma and others were sheltered by the Satsuma clan. ▼Then, Ryoma made use of his experience at this training center and established Kameyama Shachu in Nagasaki with funding from Satsuma Domain's Tomoatsu Godai and others. As you all know, this would develop into the famous Kaientai. ▼It’s the remains of a huge dream! Kaishu Katsu, Ryoma Sakamoto, and others at the end of the Edo period. I felt that Kobe was naturally bright (lol).

Here in Kobe, there was a training center where Kaishu Katsu was the director and piloted the Kanrin Maru. It is said that there were about 300 trainees. However, in 1864, the ``Kinmon Incident'' occurred in Kyoto, and the shogunate was forced to close the school because anti-shogunate roni were among the trainees. Also, Kaishu Katsu has also been fired!

There is a large squid placed there. I'm deeply moved by the fact that there were people who would appear in textbooks living in this area at the end of the Edo period.

(Translated by Google) I believe that the Kobe Naval Training Center was established as the foundation of Kobe's port city, the victory in the Russo-Japanese War in the Battle of the Sea of ​​Japan, and the establishment of Japan as a marine nation. (Original) 神戸の港町の基礎として、また日露戦争の日本海海戦での勝利や、海洋国家日本を確立できたのは神戸海軍繰練所ができたおかげだと思います。

This is a monument of the former naval training ground that stands quietly at the end of Sannomiya Station, heading straight towards the sea.
