At the end of World WarⅡ(in 1945 = Showa 20), Sasebo was designated as a port for reception of the repatriates from overseas territories, and about 1.4 million people including military personnel and civilians landed here from September through April, Showa 25(1950). So, this is a memorable place where repatriates made their first step back into the homeland. In 1986, Uragashira Park and Museum were founded with the donation, wishing everlasting peace.
