In Bando, Taima-cho, Naruto City, there was the Bando POW Camp, where German prisoners of war were held during World War I. The Bando POW Camp was praised as a model camp unlike any other in the world due to its humane management policy. At the Naruto German House, stories of the interactions between German soldiers and local residents at the time are told and many valuable documents from that time are on display.
