Very eerie place that is worth visiting and you can literally feel that many people died here. 100,000 of them...it's hard to believe. They still have the stone bases where the stakes were planted for people to be burned alive or crucified. It was astonishing with even the well right there where they supposedly washed decapitated heads. Really unforgettable experience that had a big impact on me. It's a must see if you're in Tokyo and have an interest in more than just the typical tourist traps.

One is absolutely sickened, not by the crimes that the wicked have committed, but by the punishments that the good have inflicted; and a community is infinitely more brutalised by the habitual employment of punishment than it is by the occasional occurence of crime. Oscar Wilde

品川区南大井。1651年に開設された刑場です。江戸の南の入り口(東海道)にあった鈴ヶ森刑場に対して、江戸の北の入り口(日光街道)には小塚原刑場があり、それに現在の八王子市にあった大和田刑場を加えて江戸三大刑場と呼ばれました。詳細な記録はありませんが、鈴ヶ森刑場では閉鎖される1871年まで10万人から20万人以上が処刑されたと言われ、火炙りや磔の他、当時は刑場は海沿いにあったことから水磔による処刑も行われていたと言われています。当時は今のような司法制度はありませんので、処刑された人の中には無実の人もいたのかもしれません。多くの怨恨に満ちた場所であったことでしょう。刑場跡に隣接している大経寺というお寺は、刑場の開設とともに創建されたお寺で、申し訳程度の小さな堂宇で刑死者を密かに供養していたそうです。史跡内にある大きな題目供養塔は1741年に建てられたもので、南千住の小塚原刑場跡にも同じものがありますね。この刑場で最初に処刑された者は、慶安の変の首謀者の一人で江戸幕府の転覆を図ったと言われている丸橋忠弥であると言われています。他にも平井権八、八百屋お七、大岡越前に裁かれた白子屋お熊など、江戸時代の世相を賑わせた名だたる(？)人達がこの刑場で生涯を終えています。刑場内には火炙台や磔台、首洗いの井戸が残されており、罪人たちがどのような最後を迎えたのかが少しでも想像できるような説明書きがありますが、親切だと思っていいのかどうか。狭くてひっそりとした場所でありましたが、とても見応えのある史跡でした。

Every nation has events in their history they wish the world would forget. It does not work like that. It is a good thing to remember the lessons of the past, even if it is difficult to imagine, so that we never repeat them. In the same spirit, what was done in the past should remain there. Do not erase those events. See the site. Understand its significance and do so respecfully. ...
