Kanra Town History and Folklore Museum

Ganzishe Xiaoyi Group System Factory の Yongqi Warehouse

Original Text

Constructed in 1918 as a warehouse for the Kanrakusha Obatagumi silk mill. After the decline of sericulture farmers, Kanrakucho bought a red brick building as a museum in 1959. On the first floor, valuable items from that time, such as tools used for sericulture, Tomioka silk mill votive tablets, and portraits of Nobuo Oda, are placed. I was surprised at the sight of silkworms making fences on the ceiling. On the second floor, you can see the wooden carved Buddha statue of Enku and the red fixture foot with the Obata clan crest. The good thing about the feathers at that time was the pottery flight with the pattern of sparrows and peony ...

historical.

It is a good city with the old townscape remaining. This museum was exhibited so that you can understand the history of Kanrakucho in detail. Sericulture was also popular, so it is interesting for those who are interested. The person in charge explained. It was good.

A castle town

Original Text

There is various information about Obata, the castle town of Mr. Oda. Along the road, there are old sericulture farm buildings and samurai residences, and it has not been turned into a tourist destination, so you can enjoy the atmosphere of the Meiji era from Edo. This building also has a good taste. It's close to Tomioka Silk Mill, so I think it's good to go around together ～.

An old, small castle town.

The person in charge gave a very polite explanation. I have been told that the town is proud of it. It is recommended to take a walk around the area, including Rakuzanen, which is the garden of the Oda family.

The history of Kanraku Town, sericulture and folk materials are on display.

The red brick building itself is a warehouse of the former Obata-gumi silk, built in the Taisho era 90 years ago, and has a retro feel and a good atmosphere. Inside, there are not only sericulture, but also Buddha statues carved by Enku and folk materials in Kanrakucho. Next to the entrance, there was a statue called "Kakaya Tenka Statue", which gave the impression that it was a miscellaneous museum.
