About
Eternal flame burning between two bronze hands, honoring the bombing victims.
This sculpture depicts two bronze hands cradling a flame that has burned continuously since 1964. It will remain lit until all nuclear weapons are eliminated worldwide. Aligned with the Atomic Bomb Dome, it serves as a powerful place for reflection at the heart of the Memorial Park.
