Abstract
A storage facility for objects of paying of respects includes a plurality of storage locations each configured to store an object of paying of respects including a container and one or more items held in the container, a respects-paying area, and a transport system configured to transport an object of paying of respects between the storage location and a support location provided in the respects-paying area. The container is provided with a container window configured to allow a person, visiting to pay respects, to view inside the container. A work area is provided at a location separate from the respects-paying area. Provided in the work area is a work-purpose support location where a container is supported when performing replacement work on one or more items. The transport system is further configured to also transport an object of paying of respects between the storage location and the work-purpose support location.
