    This is an important story that needs to be told. (that of Chiune Sugihara writing visas against orders that saved thousands of Jews during the Holocaust) The museum is well designed and quite powerful. The surrounding area is well maintained and very pretty.

    (Translated by Google) I went by sightseeing taxi. Anyway, the driver is a maniac in Sugihara & Yaotsu town and the explanation is very detailed. You can study a lot in the car before going to the museum. And on the way back, he will guide us around Yaotsu town. I will definitely go by sightseeing taxi. (Original) 観光タクシーで行きました。運転手がとにかく杉原&八百津町のマニアで解説がすごく詳しいです。資料館に行く前に車内でかなり勉強できます。そして帰りは八百津町内を色々案内してくれます。是非観光タクシーで行くことを進めます。

    (Translated by Google) I knew Chiune Sugihara's achievements, but I didn't know that he was from Yaotsu. When I was running on the road, I happened to see a signboard and visited the museum. I learned a lot and learned a lot. (Original) 杉原千畝さんの功績は知っていましたが、八百津出身ということは知りませんでした。 道を走っていたら偶然、看板を見かけ来館しました。 色々な事を知る事が出来て、とても勉強になりました。

    (Translated by Google) It was in a scenic spot, had a good view, and was a lovely park. Chiune's achievements were immeasurable, and the tears sprang naturally after watching the aired videos, numerous medals and passports. Admission ¥ 300 9:30 am-5:00 pm (Admission by 4:30) The museum is closed every Monday and New Year holidays. (In the case of a holiday or transfer holiday, the next weekday) (Original) 風光明媚な場所にあり、見晴らしもよく、素敵な公園でした。 千畝さんの功績は計り知れず、放映されているビデオ、勲章の数々、パスポート等々をみて、自然に涙が零れました。 入館料¥300午前9:30~午後5:00(4:30迄に入館) 毎週月曜日、年末年始が休館です。 (祝日または振替休日の場合は翌平日)

    Important place for the Jewish and Japanese. This memorial museum is devoted to Sugihara Chiune but is more aimed to depict Sugihara's deeds than his personality. Not so many personal items can be found here. Either way, worth a visit for WW2 lovers though it is a challenge to reach the place.

    An Memorial site

  • 4/5 なおかり 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I think it's a great place to learn about Sugihara-san. I learned a lot more than enough. But... Is he sick of reading the notes and "thinking about national interests"? As a person, I thought that he would stick to it, so I didn't want to see words that would damage the national interest if the Jews later grudge. Admission is 300 yen. It's reasonable. (Original) 杉原さんのことを学ぶには、とっておきの場所だと思います。十分過ぎるほど勉強になりました。 ただ…彼の手記を読んで『国益を考えて』のくだりが興ざめかな? 人として、を貫き通した人だと思っていたので後々ユダヤ人に恨まれたら国益を損なう、みたいな言葉は出来れば見たくなかったです。 入場料は300円。リーズナブルですね。

  • 5/5 岡田哲 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The Japanese are respected by the world for their actions based on their own will rather than the instructions of the country. I am impressed with the power of action. And I'm proud that there are so many memorials in my hometown. (Original) 国の指示よりも、自身の意思に基づく行為に、世界から尊敬された日本人。 その行動力に感激します。 そして、故郷にこれだけの記念館が存在することを、誇りに思います。

  • 5/5 森昭範 2 months ago on Google • 240 reviews New
    Until now, Chiune's reputation outside the museum and the depth and depth of her reputation inside the museum, the world-class achievements she has made with Hitora as her enemy, and her life-risking decisions, the accomplishments that can be said about Hitora now. Is there a grudge against him? That's probably why he's so praised in today's world, he's a great hero of Gifu Prefecture, of Japan, and of the world.

    Please stop by and take a look. You can see that there was a long process that began with Germany's bitter resentment after becoming a defeated country in World War I, including a propaganda policy against Jews. This leads to the current war between Israel and Palestine. This might be the place to think about it. . . On a different topic, if you stop by here, please stop by Midoriya, a Japanese confectionery shop in Yaotsu-cho, and buy some kusa mochi as souvenirs. It is very tasty.

  • 5/5 LYON 2 months ago on Google • 91 reviews New
    It's pretty high up on the mountain. The scenery is also good. Pizza of Life...I think you'll be moved by the fact that the lives saved are still connected to each other.

  • 4/5 Adi G. 6 years ago on Google • 31 reviews
    Nice and very emotional for Jewish people. The main drawback is that the personnel there almost can't speak English.

  • 5/5 Toshiya W. 2 months ago on Google • 27 reviews New
    If I could only go to one place, it would be here. Come pay tribute to the Japanese who don’t look like Japanese. I give him the highest praise. Shibahara used human conscience and courage to break through the framework of Japanese society. The emperor turned pale in front of him, saying that he was defeated because of his inferior technology to the United States. He had no morals or compassion. Meiji's partial Westernization abandoned Han culture and forgot to introduce Western software (Christian spirit). In 1895, it asked the Qing Dynasty for 30 years to spend 70% of its GDP on armaments, and the remaining 30% was closely related to Japan's prosperity. The Russo-Japanese War required another 300 years of GDP. In the end, Russia did not give a cent, and finally got two xx bombs. p.s Before 1895, Japan was very poor, with an annual GDP of about 8 million taels of silver. Please refer to Meiji Financial History.

  • 4/5 his- o. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) When I came to Maruyama Dam, I happened to see a signboard, so I stopped by. I didn't know that I was from Yaotsu. Since it was prohibited to take pictures inside the building, the photo is a distant view from the exterior and the observation tower on the 2nd floor toward the center of the town. (Original) 丸山ダムに来たら、たまたま看板を見かけたので立ち寄りました。 八百津出身とは知りませんでした。 館内撮影禁止だったので、写真は外観と2階展望塔から町の中心部方向の遠望です。

    (Translated by Google) The state of the office of Kaunas is also reproduced. There are tough pictures for children, but it's a good facility to learn that some of the forerunners worked hard to avoid such a tragedy. Although it is difficult to get there, free tourist taxis that you will not get tired of are also operating on weekends and holidays, so please come visit us once. (Original) カウナスの執務室の様子も再現されています。 子供にはきつい写真もありますが、このような悲劇を少しでも回避するために頑張った先達がいたことを学ぶよい施設でしょう。 行きにくさはありますが、飽きさせない無料の観光タクシーも週末&休日に運行されているので、是非一度御来館を

    (Translated by Google) The long-awaited Sugihara Memorial Hall, uh, in a place like this. Although he was a person who saved the lives of many people, it was a two-story building that was inconspicuous. The number of exhibits was small, and I thought it would have been easier to see if it was a one-story building. The receptionist 💁, please be cheerful and comfortable. (Original) 切望していた杉原記念館、あーこんな場所にと。大勢の人々の生命を助けた人物なのに、目立たない場所2階建でしたが 展示物の少なさでした平屋にしてまとめた方が見やすかったかなとの感想でした。 受付💁の方、明るく、感じ良くして下さいね。

  • 5/5 M N. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) This person ran through nearby roads many times, completely unaware of who ❔ what he did ❔. I passed in front of the memorial hall for the first time, so I had time to see the hall. Looking at the photos and texts posted in the hall, 6 million people were killed by slaughter and slaves, 1.5 million of them were killed. In the photo, a mountain of corpses and a large and wide hole dug in Judaism, after the shooting. There are several people standing in the scenery where the corpse will be shot, and there are children among them, looking at the corpse behind ... I can't stand it and tears in my eyes 😭😭 Chiune Sugihara is in Japan I was asked to issue a pizza from the country, and ❌ I wouldn't have my position, but I took action to save lives, and about 6000 people escaped. In Japan, it was actually dismissed, but the Jews who were saved decades later continued to search for and found it, so it would have been nice to see that passports and passports treated as benefactors of the Jewish state are important treasures. Compared to that, the country of Japan has no heart. Chiune Sugihara was impressed. (Original) この人は誰❔ 何をしたの❔ と 全く知らなく 近くの道路を何度も通っていた。初めて記念館前を通り時間が有ったので館内を観させてもらいました。館内の掲示された写真や文章を観て、虐殺や奴隷で 600万人《内子供 150万人》が殺されている 写真にも 死体の山やユダヤに掘らせた大きく広い穴、それは銃殺後に死体が入る為のもの、これから銃殺される風景には数名が立っている その中には子供もいて 後ろの死体を眺めていた・・耐えきれず目に涙が😭😭 杉原千畝さんは日本の国からのピザ発行の打診も❌ 自分の地位も無くだろう の中で、それよりも人命救助に行動を起こした事も有り、6000人位が逃れた。日本では実質 クビ宣告され 、でも数十年後助かったユダヤ人達が探し続けて見つけてくれた事により、ユダヤ国家の恩人扱い パスポートや通行許可証は大事な宝物とされてる、嬉しかったでしょうね、それに比べ日本の国は心無い。杉原千畝さん 感動しました。

    (Translated by Google) This person's achievements are wonderful, but the truth that 80% of the Japanese do not know, everything was done with the support of the Japanese government! I do not know where the wrong recognition started, but if you look it up you can find out the truth .. (Original) この方の功績は素晴らしいですが、日本人の8割が知らない真実、全て、日本政府の支持で行った事!何処で間違った認識が始まったのかは分かりませんが、調べると真実はわかります。

    (Translated by Google) It stands in a beautiful place, in a quiet place surrounded by nature. The building itself is not very large, but the contents are very dark. There is a wealth of various materials, photos and videos, and if you face them carefully, your heart will shake Also, my chest gets clogged. Time passes quickly. You can experience a really precious time. (Original) 美しい山々、自然に囲まれた静かな場所に佇んでいます。建物自体はそれほど大きくはありませんが、中身はとても濃いです。様々な資料、写真、映像が豊富にあり、じっくりとそれらに向き合っていると、胸が震えてきます。また、胸が詰まります。あっという間に時間が過ぎてしまいます。本当に貴重な時間を体感できます。
