Anne's Rose Church, Memorial church in Nishinomiya, Japan
Anne's Rose Church is a church building in Nishinomiya dedicated to remembering Anne Frank. The structure incorporates a rose garden where a special rose variety named after her grows alongside the main building.
In the 1970s, Anne Frank's father Otto was involved in establishing this place and contributed to its design. He also donated the rose variety that remains connected to the Frank family and still grows in the garden today.
The place serves as a space where visitors engage with the story and think about its broader messages. People come here to reflect in a quiet setting and experience the importance of tolerance and humanity.
The site is accessible by public transportation and located near a train station. The attached resource center has limited opening hours, so it is worth checking in advance before your visit.
The rose variety in the garden comes directly from a type specially named after Anne Frank that arrived here through Otto Frank's personal involvement. This original plant has been maintained for decades and represents a direct link to the family.
