Matsushiro Zozan Chikago, Nagano

As the war situation deteriorated, an underground military facility was constructed with the aim of moving the Imperial Palace, the Government Central Ministries, and the Military Center to Matsushiro, Nagano Prefecture, for the decisive battle on the mainland. Thousands of Japanese and Koreans engaged in severe labor in the construction, and by the end of the war, the two men had completed the work.

In order to fight the mainland due to the deterioration of the war situation, the construction of an underground military facility to transfer the national center functions such as the Imperial Palace, the government, the central ministries, the military, and the Japan Broadcasting Corporation to Matsushiro began, and it continued until the end of the war day. You can visit a part of the elephant mountain bunker in three underground bunkers free of charge. The museum will display related materials from that time and receive explanations.
