The remains were discovered last year at the construction site for a new public complex in Moji Ward. The city is considering various options, such as displaying parts of the remains, and is looking into similar cases from other stations to guide its approach. Mayor Takeuchi emphasized the importance of preserving the historical significance of the site while proceeding with construction as planned. The remains have been recognized as having significant historical value by ICOMOS, a UNESCO advisory body, which has issued a &#8220;Heritage Alert.&#8221;<\/span><b> Source: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www3.nhk.or.jp\/fukuoka-news\/20240912\/5010025599.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NHK<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-165690\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/fnn_mojiko-station-kitakyushu_WEB_2024.jpeg?resize=1400%2C1050&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Kitakyushu Mayor Considers Displaying Old Moji Station Remains\" width=\"1400\" height=\"1050\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/fnn_mojiko-station-kitakyushu_WEB_2024.jpeg?w=1400&amp;ssl=1 1400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/fnn_mojiko-station-kitakyushu_WEB_2024.jpeg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/fnn_mojiko-station-kitakyushu_WEB_2024.jpeg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/fnn_mojiko-station-kitakyushu_WEB_2024.jpeg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stay informed with the latest Fukuoka &amp; Kyushu news and events in English.
