Nagasaki Gokoku Shrine (Japanese: 長崎護国神社) is a Gokoku Shrine located in Nagasaki, Nagasaki Prefecture, Japan.[1][2][3][4][5] It is dedicated to the spirits of the approximately 60,000 people from Nagasaki Prefecture who died from the Meiji Restoration to the Pacific War (World War II).
It is dedicated to war dead. Such shrines were made to serve to enshrine the war dead, and they were all considered "branches" of Yasukuni Shrine. They were renamed from Shokonsha in 1939.[6]
