Matsuo no Maru

This palace is a recreation of the several which were built in the vicinity of Obi Castle. Rebuilt in 1979, the palace is constructed in the Edo period shoin-zukuri style. The palace consists of over 20 rooms, including the goza-no-ma lord's living room, a tearoom, bedchamber, and storehouse. The shingle roofed bathing cabinet, made entirely of hinoki cypress, is modeled after the national treature Nishihonganji Temple's Hiunkaku pavilion. The surrounding room was built using cedar trees over 100 years old and faithfully recreates the unique, sauna-like architecture of such facilities which existed during the Edo period. The bathing cabinet was recreated thanks to the donations of numerous local residents, and their names are inscribed on the underside of the roofing tiles.
