On June 19, 1945, a massive raid by U.S. B-29 bombers turned Fukuoka City into a burnt-out wasteland, causing catastrophic damage. To pass on the memory of this air raid to future generations, the Fukuoka City Museum has held an annual special exhibition around June 19, designated as \u201cFukuoka Air Raid Day,\u201d since its opening.<\/p>\n

This year marks two milestones\u2014100 years since the start of the Sh\u014dwa era and 80 years since the end of the war. The exhibition features 150 photographs and artifacts from the Sh\u014dwa period, spanning from its beginning to the postwar reconstruction era. It offers a glimpse into daily life in Fukuoka during those years and encourages reflection on war and peace.<\/p>\n
