Mimitsu General Hall

4.0

This building is an early Meiji period merchant home called the Yanoya which has been restored and remodeled. Situated in the Mimitsu Important Preservation District for Groups of Traditional Buildings, where an old-fashioned townscape and the area's traditional culture can still be found, the building still looks as it did when first built as a merchant home and is open to the general public. The building incorporates Kyoto and Osaka merchant home-style architecture, such as mushikomado fine-latticed windows, Kyoto-style latticework, and a living room which extends all the way from the entrance to the rear garden. Today, the building is used to host lectures and courses as the New Himuka Urban Development School, and as a training facility and space for interactive history activities.

明治時代の町並みを、保存してある一角に、この施設はありました。無料で見れる商家は三軒。そのうちの一件で廻船問屋だったところです。入口からして趣があり、中の柱などもすごいです。
