Kominka Yamaju House, Traditional farmer residence museum in Aikawa, Japan

The Kominka Yamaju House features elaborate wooden construction methods, tatami flooring, and sliding doors that represent traditional Japanese architectural design.

Built in 1886 during the Meiji period, this farmhouse belonged to a wealthy farmer and received national cultural asset registration in 2009.

The interior layout and architectural elements of Kominka Yamaju House demonstrate the living conditions and social status of prosperous farmers in 19th-century Japan.

Located at 485-1 Nakatsu in Aikawa Town, the museum welcomes visitors from 9:00 to 17:00, except Tuesdays, with free general admission.

The house maintains an enormous entrance gate and distinctive roof construction that set it apart from typical farmhouses of its era.
