  • The Great Fire of Namie Town During the Ansei Era of the Edo Period and ‘Namie Eki Kansenhi’

抄録

Namie town in Fukushima Prefecture suffered from the Fukushima nuclear disaster. Namie Town was originally called Koya Town. During the Edo period, the town of Namie had many large fires, so it was named Namie, which means water in Japanese. In February 1859, 90% of the town of Namie was destroyed by fire. Since then, the city's districts have changed significantly. The town's inhabitants moved out of their old homes and formed a new town. In 1882, the ‘Namie Eki Kansenhi’ was erected to commemorate the change in urban planning. This was to raise awareness of fire prevention among the townspeople. However, even after the monument was erected, large fires occurred frequently in Namie. A monument is a symbol of the will to commemorate, pray for, or honor a person or an event, and to pass it on to future generations. However, just having a monument is not enough. The ‘Namie Eki Kansenhi’ shows the need to enlighten the significance of the monument.
