The Site of Battery

War Heritage View Spot

Original Text

It is the site of a battery completed in 1945 on the north side of Munakata Oshima Island. It is a very good view and is located in a place overlooking the sea on the north side. Conversely, considering it as a construction site for the battery, it is good that there is nothing to block the visibility, but it is also a difficult place to camflex. Nowadays, the ceiling of the observatory is green, but I still felt it was tough. The weather was nice when I went, so I could see Okinoshima ...

The view on the top of the battery is the best!

The site of the battery is in good condition. The view from the top is the best because you can see Okinoshima! However, the sun is strong, so be careful of sunburn!

It was built in 1945 at the site of a battery on Oshima in Munakata City. It was unclear whether it was actually used, but it was quietly facing the Sea of Japan. Unfortunately the weather was good when I visited, but on a sunny day, it seems that you can see Okinoshima, a World Heritage Site "Kamiyadoru Island".

Striving for a legacy

Original Text

I visited the Oshima Okitsunomiya Harukasho of Munakata Taisha Shrine, so I stopped by. Several battery remains firmly on a small hill with a good view. It seems that it was built around 1955, so was it the key to northern Kyushu?

The torch of the battery made in the early Showa period before the war is left, and the peeping window can see the scenery of the windmill under the hill.
