Résumé (en anglais)

Two earthquakes of a seismic intensity of 7 on the Japanese seven-stage seismic scale occurred in Kumamoto, the first at 9 p.m. on April 14th, 2016, and the second at midnight on the 16th, causing enormous damage at various places in Kumamoto Prefecture. More than 180,000 people were forced to evacuate for several nights. With regard to cultural heritage, the damage was severe. For example, the Ro-mon (tower gate) and Haiden (hall of worship) of the Aso shrine and two Yagura (turrets) of the Kumamoto Castle collapsed entirely: both the shrine and castle have been designated as Important Cultural Properties in Japan. A year and a half since the Kumamoto Earthquakes, a major issue is how historic buildings can be preserved, such as valuable traditional houses and small shrines in historic settlements that escaped collapse. ICOMOS Japan publishes this report in the hope that, by sharing its information, which is concerned with earthquake disasters and the eff orts toward recovery, it will be a valuable guide for other countries that have the possibility of similar earthquake damage in finding desirable ways to preserve their cultural heritage from natural disasters.
