Chiune Sugihara Memorial Hall
Information
The hall was created using traditional refined construction methods using cypress grown in
Sugihara's hometown of Gifu. It accentuates the cultural differences between faraway Lithuania
and Yaotsu town where he was born with the architecture projecting his warmth and humanity beyond the bounds of time and space.
The memorial hall houses a spacious wood framed exhibition room, Sugihara's office,
and a lookout room offering a panoramic view of Yaotsu town.
