"Located in the north-western part of Kyushu island, this serial property consists of ten villages, Hara Castle and a cathedral, built between the 17th and 19th centuries. They reflect the era of prohibition of the Christian faith, as well as the revitalization of Christian communities after the official lifting of prohibition in 1873. These sites bear unique testimony to a cultural tradition nurtured by hidden Christians in the Nagasaki region who secretly transmitted their faith during the period of prohibition from the 17th to the 19th century."
长崎地区隐藏的基督教遗址
"该遗产地位于九州岛西北部，其12个组成部分包括建于16-19世纪之间的10个村庄、奥哈拉城堡和大教堂。它们共同反映了基督教传入初期传教士和定居者在日本的活动，即“相遇阶段“，其后的对基督教信仰的禁止和迫害, 以及1873年禁令取消后基督教社区的复兴。17-19世纪基督教被禁时期，长崎地区隐藏基督徒的秘密传教培育了独特的文化，这些遗址是这些文化传统的独特证明。"
