    Kumamoto Pref. Amakusashi Amakusamachioe 1749
    About 65 minute drive from the Amakusa Airport, or one minute walk from the Tenshudou Iriguchi bus stop. This museum houses a collection of valuable and rare objects related to the lives, culture, and faith of the underground Christians in Amakusa history. In addition to Maria kannon statuettes, the holy water urn used during funeral services, the ‘sutra-erasing urn’, which is a prefectural Important Cultural Property, on display, through videos, the history, nature, and underground Christians’ lives are introduced. The erstwhile mass is even a reenacted. This is experienced accompanied by ‘oratio’ sounds of prayer in a full scale diorama of a ‘hidden room’ especially built for secret worship services.

    市内に幾つかある天草の隠れキリシタン関連の施設の中で、関連資料が一番整理されて纏まっていると思います。 来館したらまずは15分の映像を見てから館内を見て回ると良いでしょう。

    Kumamoto Pref. Amakusashi Kawauramachishirakikawachi 175-13
    "This history museum in Amakusa City, Kumamoto Prefecture is popular with tourists. It provides the chance to learn about Amakusa from the 16th century onward and its interactions with European culture. There are a variety of exhibits including materials related to the Collegio missionary school, and a replica of the Gutenberg printing press brought back to Amakusa by the boys and others of the ""Tensho Embassy."" Apart from their permanent exhibition, they regularly hold planned exhibits."

    グーテンベルク印刷機を見たいと思って来館しましたがレプリカでした。本物はバテレン追放時に一緒にマニラかマカオに送られてしまったようです。 コレジヨ館ですが地元代議士の私物コレクションを引き継いで展示されていると自慢され、なんだかなぁという感じです。

    I am a huge history lover and I had a free afternoon so I walked to this museum. There are two floors with displays on the life and history of Amakusa. NONE of it is translated. It wasnt busy so...

    楽しみに行きましたが、2017年11月をもって閉館したようです。 すぐ隣の「ありあけタコ街道」のオブジェでの記念写真と目の前の海岸での磯遊びを楽しみました。

Kumamoto Areas

Kumamoto lies in the center of Kyushu, a calm prefecture perfect for easy strolls around the historic center and lazy evenings in the natural hot springs at Kurokawa Onsen. For a slightly more strenuous activity, head to Mount Aso, whose surrounding hills offer hiking opportunities aplenty with views over the active volcano.
