Gunma Pref. Kanragunshimonitamachi Minaminomaki Yashiki Ko 10690

This silkworm egg storage facility was built in 1905. Its refrigeration technology using naturally cooled air allowed the silviculture cycle, which traditionally had been annual, to be done several times a year.

A nationally designated historic site, it’s also registered as part of the “Tomioka Silk Mill and Related Sites” World Heritage Site.
