Setagaya Daikanyashiki, Important Cultural Property in Setagaya, Japan

The Setagaya Daikanyashiki features a thatched roof main building and gate constructed in traditional Japanese architectural style from the mid-Edo period.

Built in 1737, this residence served as both the home and office for the Oba family, who managed 20 villages in the Setagaya domain for the Hikone clan.

The property includes the Setagaya Local History Museum, which displays artifacts and documents illustrating the administrative practices of Edo-period local governors.

Located 5 minutes on foot from Kamimachi Station on the Tokyu Setagaya Line, the facility opens from 9:00 to 17:00 and offers free admission.

The residence represents the only surviving magistrate's office from a daimyo domain in Tokyo, maintaining its original structural elements from the 18th century.
