Yamawaki Toyo Dissection Monument Cemetery

Japan's first medical anatomy monument

Original Text

It is just down Sanjo on Shinkyogoku-dori and into the east. Toyo Yamawaki was a person who dissected the death penalty in the hexagon prison in Hexagon Omiya in 1754 and observed the human body structure. A monument that says that the memorial tower for the dissected death penalty is located in the graveyard of Seiganji stands at the entrance of Seiganji graveyard. It was earlier than Genpaku Sugita!

Urajimachi Dori street

Original Text

If you go north on Urateramachi-dori, you will find a stone monument at the corner where the road turns west. It's an entrance like a general private house, so I don't even know if I can get inside.

No explanation.

There is only a stone monument. I don't think that the stone monument where anyone happened in the time and time can convey anything.

There was only a stone monument on the side of the road.

Original Text

It was a memorial monument for medical practitioners in the mid-Edo period, and only a stone monument stood beside the entrance of the Seiganji Cemetery. There was no explanation board to write details, and it seemed to be a stone monument that stood upright. It was a little difficult to understand, and I would have overlooked it if I hadn't checked it in advance.
