Sarushima, now an uninhabited island in Yokosuka City, was once a capital defense base in Tokyo Bay. In the Meiji era (1868-1912), the island became a base for the Ministry of War and the Ministry of the Navy, and the Sarushima Battery was built, but it was never actually used, and it still remains. Many valuable historical properties remain, and the site has been designated as a National Historic Site.
