Former Residence of Lord Hotta

The residence displays traditional Japanese architecture with wooden structures, elevated floors, and paper sliding doors throughout its multiple rooms and corridors.

Built in 1890, this residence belonged to Masatomo Hotta, the final lord of Sakura Domain during the transition from feudal rule to modern Japan.

The residence features traditional tatami rooms, reception areas, and living quarters that reflect the lifestyle of Japanese nobility during the Meiji period.

Located 20 minutes on foot from Keisei Sakura Station, the residence opens daily from 9:30 AM to 4:30 PM, except Mondays, with admission at 320 yen.

The garden incorporates the surrounding landscape into its design, creating different visual perspectives across its expansive lawn and seasonal plantings.
