長谷川邸

The Hasegawa Residence features traditional Japanese architecture with thatched roofs, moats spanning 2 to 4 meters wide, and earthen walls surrounding the property.

Built in 1716 after a fire destroyed the original structure, the Hasegawa Residence served as the home of village headmen during the Edo period.

The residence maintains original features from the Edo period, including sliding doors, paper screens, and traditional room layouts representing northern Japan architectural styles.

The residence opens from April through November, with admission fees of 420 yen for adults and 210 yen for children, offering parking for 70 vehicles.

The residence contains documentation of comet observations made by the Hasegawa family heads during the Edo period, providing astronomical records from that era.
