A stone monument near the Mori family graveyard at Koriyama Castle Ruins

This monument is based on a rubbing of a stone that says that when Motonari Mori built Koriyama Castle, he enshrined a large stone with one strength and one heart each day in place of a human sacrifice. The words "One million hearts" were carved into the cornerstone, which is said to teach us that each and every person should join forces and work together in unity of heart each day.
