This place, where the children of Ukedo Elementary School were evacuated to immediately following the earthquake, was an expanse of fields at that time. Afterwards, in response to the wishes of the local residents, the Ohirayama Cemetery was built on the site to house the graves of those who were lost in the disaster.

The classrooms and gymnasium on the first floor, which were most severely damaged by the tsunami, are almost entirely as they were at the time of the disaster, and the site has been prepared so that visitors can observe the conditions.
