TheTachiarai Peace Memorial Museum (筑前町立 大刀洗平和記念館,Chikuzen chōritsu tachiarai heiwakinenkan) is a historical museum located in the town ofChikuzen, Fukuoka, Japan.[1][2][3][4]

Overview

[edit]

TheImperial Japanese Army Air Service operated theTachiarai Army Airfield, which was completed in October 1919. The area between the towns of Chikuzen and Tachiarai ¥ was chosen because it would serve as a relay point for air groups heading formainland China, and because it was far from the coast and would not be affected by naval gunfire from enemy fleets. The airfield was also used for commercial aircraft from 1929 to 1936. From around 1937, the number of military facilities attached to the airfield increased, and Tachiarai Army Flight School became one of main bases for Army pilot training. In the final stages ofWorld War II, it played a part in the defense of the homeland, including the training ofkamikaze pilots, but suffered damage from air raids by the American military. After the end of the war, it was abandoned and the site was converted into farmland and part became the site of theKirin Beer Fukuoka factory. In 1987, a local businessman purchased a renovated the old station building ofAmagi Railway'sTachiarai Station on constructed museum. The prize exhibit was aNakajima Ki-27 aircraft which had been recovered fromHakata Bay.

The municipality purchased the museum and relocated it on the opposite side ofJapan National Route 500 in front of the old building in 2008 and reopened it in 2009 as the Chikuzen Town Tachiarai Peace Memorial Museum. The new structure was designed to resemble an aircraft hangar, and now houses both the Nakajima Ki-27 and aMitsubishi A6M Zero donated by the Fukuoka Aerospace Association, a group of airplane enthusiasts. The museum also displays approximately 1800 items from the war, including materials from the Tachiarai Air Raid in March 1945.

The museum also has on display aMitsubishi MH2000 helicopter, and also a full-scale replica of aKyushu J7W Shinden which was constructed for use in the filming of the 2023 movieGodzilla Minus One.[5][6][7]
