An industrial city in the northwest of North Hwanghae Province, North Korea. It is located on the left bank of the downstream Taedong River. It was originally a fishing village on the banks of the Taedong River, but because the river is wide and the water is deep, Japan used it as a landing point for railroad materials for the construction of the Gyeongui Line (Seoul - Sinuiju) during the Russo-Japanese War. Since then, it was renamed Kenjiho after the person in charge of landing, Watanabe Kenji. After that, the Mitsubishi-affiliated Kenjiho Steelworks was established, and iron ore from the Hwanghae Province area was concentrated there, with a blast furnace and one open hearth furnace in operation. It was reduced to ashes during the Korean War, but was later rebuilt as a representative metallurgical industrial base in North Korea. It produces pig iron, various steels, rolled steel materials, as well as benzine and ammonium sulfate. The factory grounds house a labor college for employees, a hospital, entertainment facilities, etc. In the city center, there is Matsubayashi Institute of Technology.

北朝鮮、黄海北道(こうかいほくどう/ファンヘプクド)北西部にある工業都市。大同江(だいどうこう/テドンカン)下流の左岸に位置する。もと大同江岸の一漁村であったが、川幅が広く水深が深いところから、日本が日露戦争遂行のため京義線(ソウル―新義州(しんぎしゅう/シンイチュ))建設の鉄道資材の陸揚げ場に使っていた。それ以来、陸揚げ責任者の渡辺兼二の名をとって兼二浦(けんじほ)と改名した。その後、三菱(みつびし)系の兼二浦製鉄所が設置され、黄海道一帯の鉄鉱石が集中され、溶鉱炉と平炉1基が稼動していた。朝鮮戦争で灰燼(かいじん)に帰したが、その後、北朝鮮の代表的な冶金(やきん)工業基地として再建された。銑鉄をはじめ各種の鋼鉄、圧延鋼材を生産し、ベンジン、硫酸アンモニウムも生産している。工場内には従業員の労働大学、病院、娯楽施設などがある。市街地には松林工業大学がある。 [魚 塘] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
