长崎钟 是一座纪念碑，于2000年9月在明斯克 <a href="https://findit.city/cn/belarus/minsk/leisure/tourism/sights/49/description">独立广场</a> 竖立。它位于 <a href="https://findit.city/cn/belarus/minsk/leisure/tourism/sights/52/description">红教堂</a> 和圣米迦勒雕像旁。纪念碑纪念核灾难的受害者，如长崎原子弹轰炸和切尔诺贝利核灾难。该钟是日本“天使”钟的精确复制品，“天使”钟在1945年8月9日长崎原子弹袭击后幸存下来。

原始的钟是在长崎被毁的浦上大教堂废墟中发现的，后来被安置在城市中心，象征战争的恐怖。明斯克的纪念碑象征着白俄罗斯与日本人民之间的友谊以及他们共同追求和平与安全的愿望。

纪念碑的主要元素是悬挂在带有十字架的木结构上的钟。此纪念碑的一个特别之处是任何人都可以通过拉绳子来敲钟。纪念碑底座内存有来自耶路撒冷、广岛、长崎、福岛、切尔诺贝利，以及新地岛和塞米巴拉金斯克试验场的土壤胶囊，强调了核灾难的全球性质。

在纪念碑揭幕仪式上，日本浦上大教堂的住持三村正一强调了白俄罗斯和日本之间文化和精神联系的重要性。纪念碑提醒人们核灾难的可怕后果，特别是对于1986年经历了切尔诺贝利事故的白俄罗斯来说。

该纪念碑位于明斯克的历史区域，靠近建于20世纪初的圣西蒙和海伦娜教堂。教堂旁有一个带喷泉的广场和雕塑《给予爱》，使这个地方成为散步和休息的理想场所。

长崎钟 象征和平，并警告核冲突的毁灭性后果，铭记灾难中的受害者，增强了对和平未来的渴望。

Nagasaki Bell is a monument erected in Minsk at <a href="https://findit.city/en/belarus/minsk/leisure/tourism/sights/49/description">Independence Square</a> in September 2000. It is located next to the <a href="https://findit.city/en/belarus/minsk/leisure/tourism/sights/52/description">Red Church</a> and the sculpture of Archangel Michael. The memorial is dedicated to the memory of the victims of nuclear disasters, such as the atomic bombing of Nagasaki and the Chernobyl disaster. The bell is an exact replica of the Japanese "Angel," which survived the atomic strike on Nagasaki on August 9, 1945.

The original bell was found under the rubble of the destroyed Urakami Cathedral in Nagasaki. It was later installed in the city center as a symbol of the horrors of war. The monument in Minsk symbolizes the friendship between the peoples of Belarus and Japan and their common aspirations for peace and security.

The main element of the memorial is the bell, suspended on a wooden structure with crosses. A special feature of this monument is the ability for anyone to ring the bell by pulling on a rope. At the base of the monument are capsules with soil from Jerusalem, Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Fukushima, Chernobyl, as well as from the Novaya Zemlya and Semipalatinsk test sites, emphasizing the global nature of nuclear disasters.

During the opening of the monument, the rector of the Japanese Urakami Cathedral, Shiyochi Mimura, noted the importance of cultural and spiritual ties between Belarus and Japan. The memorial serves as a reminder of the terrible consequences of nuclear disasters, especially significant for Belarus, which experienced the Chernobyl accident in 1986.

The monument is located in the historic part of Minsk, next to the Church of Saints Simon and Helena, which was built at the beginning of the 20th century. Next to the church, there is a square with a fountain and the sculpture "Giving Love," making this place attractive for walks and relaxation.

Nagasaki Bell is a symbol of peace and a warning about the destructive consequences of nuclear conflicts, preserving the memory of the victims of tragedies and reinforcing the desire for a peaceful future.
