Akazaki Shrine Rakuzanshiki (Rakuzanshiki Outdoor Theater)
長門市東深川
A semicircular outdoor theater located at Akazaki Shrine, designed to utilize the horseshoe-shaped terrain. It is designated as an Important Tangible Folk Cultural Property of Japan.
History
Originating in 1596 CE (Keichō 1) as a venue for dedicated performing arts to give thanks for the recovery from an epidemic affecting cattle and horses, the site was developed into the 'Rakuzanshiki' featuring stone-built spectator seating. In 1961 CE (Shōwa 36), a plan to renovate the site into a sumo wrestling venue sparked a preservation movement known as the 'Akazaki Struggle,' which successfully halted the project. Consequently, the site was designated as an Important Tangible Folk Cultural Property of Japan in 1963 CE (Shōwa 38).
