Nagasaki Peace Park was built in 1955 to commemorate the victims of the atomic bombing of Nagasaki on August 9, 1945.

Currently, the Park is displaying works and artworks contributed by many countries, expressing sympathy and empathy for the pain and loss that the Japanese people have experienced, while also demonstrating the tradition of loving world peace.

The Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Museum is located within the Peace Memorial Park, home to the Atomic Bomb Dome, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that houses artifacts from the victims and remains of destroyed buildings.
