Door of the safe of the former Hokkaido Takushoku Bank
Odori Nishi 3-7
It was installed in 1966 by the former Hokkaido Takushoku Bank as a door for an underground safe deposit box when its head office was newly built.It is said to be one of the largest in Japan, weighing 15 tons and measuring 2 meters in diameter.
Currently, glass is fitted into the opening as art.
You may have heard of Takushoku Bank, which was the first city bank to fail after the war, and the only one to date. Try to think about what the scenery was like on the other side.
