Highlights & What to Do

A high-quality residential building from the Taisho era (relocated around 1916), constructed with the backing of salt field management.
In addition to the main house, the detached sitting room, tea room, and storehouse remain intact on the estate.
The tea room is said to have been designed by Fujian, a tea master of the Kobori Enshu school.
This mansion was built on the site of the former No. 1 salt field in Takehara and is designated as an Important Cultural Property of Takehara City.
