    "This memorial honors the achievements of the German doctor Erwin Baelz who was active during the Meiji period (1868-1912). Besides teaching at the University of Tokyo, he also served as the Imperial physician. He was impressed by Kusatsu, saying, ""Besides its amazing hot springs, this area also has Japan's best mountains, air, and ideal drinking water."" He went on to introduce the town to the wider world and he's known as the Patron of Kusatsu for his role in drawing tourists from abroad. The memorial's display room has an array of items that tell the story of the man and the town."

Gunma prefecture is synonymous with onsen. Natural hot spring water sources throughout the prefecture have given rise to a series of small onsen towns, each set among luscious mountains. At Kusatsu, Ikaho, and Minakami, traditional indoor and outdoor bathing experiences are served hand in hand with irresistible onsen-themed food, including steam-cooked eggs and custard pudding.
