Pass Through the Entrance to Take a Mysterious Trip in Time Back to the Past
The historical figure that Kamiamakusa is most proud of is Amakusa Shiro (Masuda Shiro Tokisada). Amakusa was the person who, although a teenager, marshalled the passions of the people to drive the rebel forces in the Shimabara-Amakusa Rebellion in the 17th century when the Shogunate began cracking down on Christians. The Amakusa Shiro Museum tells of the era when Amakusa Shiro lived, the history of Christianity and nanban (foreign) culture through videos, dioramas, projection mapping and performances. The facility periodically collaborates with universities to hold special exhibitions to reconstruct the situation at that time such as by displaying valuable books and tools. The museum is located within Amakusa Shiro Park. Its unique architectural beauty also makes it worth seeing.
