Kochi Prefectural Kochi Otemae High School, high school in Kochi, Japan
Kochi Prefectural Kochi Otemae High School is a public high school in the city of Kochi, Japan. The school grounds include teaching buildings, a gymnasium, and outdoor sports areas used daily by students.
The school was founded in the early 20th century, making it one of the older secondary schools in the Kochi region. Over the decades, its buildings and facilities have been updated to meet the needs of new generations of students.
The school is an active educational facility, so access to the grounds is generally not open to the public during school hours. Those passing through the area can view the exterior from the surrounding streets.
The name Otemae refers to the area in front of a castle gate, and the school sits close to Kochi Castle, one of the few original castle complexes remaining in Japan. This location means students study just a short walk from a castle that dates back to the early 17th century.
