Rohwer Japanese American Relocation Center (A-State Heritage Site)

Some 8,000 Japanese Americans were interned at Rohwer (Desha County) during World War II. Audio exhibits on site and a museum at McGehee preserve their memories.  Today all that remains of the once 500-acre relocation camp is the Rohwer Memorial Cemetery, where many Japanese Americans interned at the camp were laid to rest, and a tall smokestack, where the camp’s hospital used to stand.  Two large monuments also are located in the cemetery, honoring all those who died while interned there, as well the young men from the camp who gave their lives fighting for the U.S. in World War II.
