About Daigo Fukuryu Maru Exhibition Hall

This museum houses the Daigo Fukuryu Maru, a Japanese wooden tuna fishing boat that was exposed to nuclear fallout during the 1954 Castle Bravo hydrogen bomb test at Bikini Atoll. The exhibition documents the history of the vessel, the health impacts on its crew, and the subsequent development of the anti-nuclear movement in Japan.
