Naval training school in Nagasaki established in 1855

 

Faced with crises from overseas countries, the Shogunate established the  Naval training

Excellent people from all over the Japan were gathered in Nagasaki, and Katsu Kaishu was

among them. At the training school, practical education was provided on steam engines,

navigation, operational techniques, physics, as well as artillery training and short sea navigation.
