Museum of 26 Martyrs of Japan

This museum has an amazing history and is very detailed. It can take a few hours to take everything in. Its definitely a must visit place for any Christian who wants to see how Christianity entered Japan amd how it has survived and is being strengthened in current time.

The history was heartbreaking. It is worth a visit. For those stamp collector, there is a stamp inside the museum.

The museum is not that big, I stayed 1 hour because I really, really took my time since the entrance was 500¥. Everyone else that came in got out after 5 to 20 minutes. There were some impressive artifacts, but I felt like a good part of the exhibit was not specific to Nagasaki and what happened there.

Historical place. ...to stand on the place where 26 true Christians died for their faith touched my heart. Their 30 day journey from Kyoto to Nagasaki to be martyred....their Way of the Cross. I felt privileged to stand on the spot where showed their courage and love for Christ.

Very informative and well structured museum showing the history of european missionaries (from home country Portugal) that came to Japan in order to spread Christianity. Their story is really well told and although it has an unhappy ending, the kakure kurishitan will always have a place in the history of Christ.
