A large swirling roof serves as a symbol that connects Kamaishi's sea, town, and forest.

A large swirling roof is constructed by combining lumber from Kamaishi with the main iron pillars, symbolizing the city of iron. Like a lighthouse illuminating a port, it becomes a symbol for visitors from Japan and abroad.
