Nipponzan Myohoji Peace Pagoda

100 Cave Hill Rd
Leverett, MA 01054

The New England Peace Pagoda, completed in 1985, is a Buddhist stupa dedicated to inspiring peace and uniting people of all races and creeds in their pursuit of world harmony. Founded by Nichidatsu Fujii, a Buddhist monk deeply influenced by Mahatma Gandhi, the pagoda stands as a monument to nonviolence, reflecting the belief that true security arises from the renunciation of war and the preservation of life.

As part of the Nipponzan Myohoji Buddhist Order, the New England Peace Pagoda contributes to a global movement of peace, commemorating the tragic events of Hiroshima and Nagasaki while promoting a vision for a world without nuclear weapons. With a commitment to the principles of nonviolence and compassion taught by the Buddha, the pagoda serves as a beacon of hope for all who seek genuine liberation from conflict.
