The Abashiri Prison Museum is an outdoor museum of history. Buildings
that have been for the Abashiri Prison since the Meiji era (1868–1912) are
preserved and open to the public.
The oldest building was constructed about 120
years ago, 6 years after the Abashiri Prison was established. Logs were sawed into
boards by inmates without using machinery, so you can see the rough finish on the
surface of the thick beams and pillars. Visit the museum to learn about the history of
the prison. First, visit the various pages of this website.
