Special Exhibition: Hiroshima Red Cross Hospital

Hiroshima Red Cross Hospital is one of a few medical institutions which escaped destruction when Hiroshima City was devastated by the atomic bombing. Many wounded people flooded the hospital, and received treatment by surviving doctors and nurses night and day with limited equipment and medicines. This exhibition aims to convey the devastation of the atomic bombing, the stupidity of war and the preciousness of life through items depicting Hiroshima Red Cross Hospital’s relief activities in miserable conditions after the atomic bombing.
