    Interesting little Museum

    Located near the JR Yokosuka train station. Free admission. Everything in Japanese but you can still enjoy the video, activities and marvel at the scope and size of the machinery in this building. So ...

    The steam hammer is amazing.

    Original Text

    This is a small building in front of Yokosuka Station. It is said that it was built to convey the achievements of the French engineer Verney who created the Yokosuka Steel Works and the significance of the Yokosuka Steel Works to posterity for a long time. The memorial hall can be entered for free, and a real steam hammer designated as a national important cultural property (a machine tool that uses steam to power the hammer and processes metal materials with the force to fall). Is a masterpiece.

    It is a memorial hall in Verney Park near JR Yokosuka Station. The overwhelming hammer that you can visit for free is amazing. You can see the former Yokosuka, which has many Western-style machines.

    Steam hammer

    Original Text

    It is a memorial hall with a steam hammer in the building. It's free so you can easily enter. A steam hammer imported from the Netherlands once sits inside. JR Yokosuka Station is nearby.
