Ueno German Culture Village

3.0

This theme park sits in an area where local villagers rescued shipwrecked Germans during the Meiji period. In the center of the park is a full-scale replica of Marksburg Castle, where there is a floor open to visitors where they can learn about German culture. There’s also an exhibit dedicated to Gerhard Schröder, the former German chancellor who visited during the 26th G8 Summit held in Okinawa in 2000. One can also find a kinder house, which is German for “children’s house,” as well as several exhibits on toys and even two pieces of the Berlin Wall donated from Germany.
