It was erected on September 20, 1964 by the Hiroshima Atomic Bomb Victims Hiroshima Wishing Crystal Society. The surface of the bell is embossed with a borderless world map that symbolizes "one world." It is said that the seat is a nuclear power mark with the thought of prohibiting atomic bombing, and on the other side, there is a mirror that reflects the person's own heart. In 1996 (Heisei 8), it was selected as one of the 100 Soundscapes of Japan that the Environment Agency (at that time) wanted to keep.
