Miyahata Ruins Museum Furuichi and Associates
Miyahata ruins (about 4,500 - 4,000 years ago) that have been discovered in Fukushima Prefecture, Fukushima City, represent the heritage of a group of village with a history spanning about 2,000 years.
In 1989 were discovered for the first time these ruins, thanks to some excavations for the industrial development. Only in 2005 the city decided to save the ruins and it was proposed a project for a historical museum. But the project was forced to be interrupted in March 2011 for the nuclear disaster of Fukushima. Only in 2015 the project was completed and became one of the symbols of reconstruction after the disaster.
