Takashima Castle Purple Light-Up

About this event

During the Cabinet Office's "Campaign for Eliminating Violence against Women," Takashima Castle, a symbol of Suwa City, will be lit up in purple, inspired by the purple ribbon symbol for the eradication of violence against women. This initiative sends a widespread message aimed at eliminating violence against women and conveys support to victims with the thought, "Don't suffer alone; please seek consultation first!" The lighting ceremony will take place in front of Takashima Castle's Kabukimon Gate, wrapping the castle in a fantastical purple glow throughout the illumination period. Designed to raise awareness for domestic violence prevention, this event serves as an opportunity for the entire local community to call for an end to violence against women.
