WELCOME TO "PEACE AICHI"
More than 70 years have passed since the last war.
The number of people who lived through the lastwar -time period are decreasing. Furthermore, war
products, arms, and historical war materials havebeen rusting, deteriorating, and are being lost. We
should pass on historic lessons of the negative
legacy, wars in the 20th Century, to future
generations. We gathered many wishes of thepeople to keep peace, and finally established themuseum of war and peace, "PEACE AICHI". We
want our museum to be a functional facility thatteaches the lessons of war, that spreads thecitizens' messages of peace, and that plays animportant role in relaying the message and this vital
education to the next generation. Additionally, we'dbe grateful if any visitor to the museum would takethe first step to peace.
We hope many people will join us, co-operate withus and assist us.

●DISPLAY OF EACH SECTIONPEACE JIZOU

The first display section AIR RAIDS OVER AICHI PREFECTURE
Aichi prefecture was terribly
bombed and devastatedduring the last war. Do youknow how our cities, towns,
houses and streets weredevastated? Do you know
why people suffered fromsuch severe air raids? Wecondemn any air raids which
are still being conductedanywhere in the world byshowing the photos andexhibits of air-raids
in this museum.
We are strongly
opposed to theideology of
air-raids
and otheratrocities.

The second display section WHOLE VIEW OF THE WARS & 15-year- War
On the wall panels the invasion routes of the Japanese Imperial
army/navy and many battles and conflicts during the fifteen-year-war
are shown in historical order with maps, photos and detailedcomments/illustrations.
"The photos of the slain victims
in the Fifteen-Year-War", hungin the center of the display section, are our "life wall panel". We
regard the policy of conducting
wars as the destruction ofhuman dignity. Peace and War
Museum Peace Aichi always
promotes our essential main
theme as "war・life・death"

We welcomed the Peace Jizou(Buddhist stature) which watched theover casualties of the war and devastated area at Chihaya, Naka-ku,
Nagoya for a long time. Now thePeace Jizou is with us at Peace Aichi.

"The exhibition of the animals during the war", During
the war time many animals in the zoos of Japan werekilled because of disease and the shortage of food. However, an elephant of the Higashiyama Zoo was kept welland survived. After the war, many children across Japancame by train to see the elephant.
