The present church was built in 1910 (Meiji 43) and became the third-generation church in Aozagaura. The one-story building, with a double-layered roof structure, with a red brick outer wall and a tiled roof, was constructed by congregants carrying up bricks from Sasebo in total. The inside of the hall is a three-story building, the walls are plastered, and the ceiling is a four-part rib vault ceiling in both the main and side antefacts. The ornamentation of the columns on either side of the front entrance and the stained glass of the circular windows are graceful. It was designed and constructed by Tetsu Kawasuke, who was originally from the local area, and was the second brick church to be built by Tsuke, after the former Noriko Church. It has been designated as an important cultural property of the country as an example of a brick church. The white statue of Mary and the green of the cycads weave a beautiful contrast in front of the temple.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":20583,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"categories":[75],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-149847","travelpost","type-travelpost","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-spot"],"blocksy_meta":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/travelpost\/149847","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/travelpost"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/travelpost"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/travelpost\/149847\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/20583"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=149847"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=149847"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=149847"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
