Origin of Otome Pass
In the first year of the Meiji era, 3394 hidden Christians were captured by the persecution of Christianity in Nagasaki Urakami, of which 153 were exiled to Tsuwano and taken from Nagasaki Urakami and housed in an old barn in the precincts of Korinji Temple. They were descendants of Christians during the Warring States period, and for 250 years during the Edo period, they hid and kept their faith under severe crackdowns. This history is unprecedented in the history of Catholicism in the world, and has been praised by people all over the world, including successive Popes.
They were taken to Tsuwano for five years, and some were put in a three-shaku prison every day to change their faith, and sometimes in the middle of winter, they were put in an ice-filled pond many times. They were tortured inexhaustibly. And among the Christians who kept their faith, 37 people died of martyrdom due to cruel torture. When Yasutaro, who became a martyr, was tortured and put in a three-shaku prison every day, the Virgin Mary appeared in front of Yasutaro almost every night, and She talked gently and was comforted. And soon after, Yasutaro achieved a holy martyrdom in the Sanshaku prison.
The name of this land, Otome Pass, has been around for a long time, but with the appearance of the Virgin Mary in Yasutaro, it has become a truly appropriate name.
In the 6th year of the Meiji Era, the Christian ban that lasted for more than 250 years was abolished, and the Christians who kept their faith despite being severely tortured returned to Nagasaki Urakami.
