駒場農學校

The former Komaba Agricultural School was a training institution for modern farming methods located in a historic Tokyo district. The campus contained classroom buildings, student dormitories, and extensive fields where practical learning took place.

The school was founded in 1878 to introduce western agricultural methods to Japan. German scientific teaching shaped the curriculum and research focus at this location for many decades.

The location is named after the agricultural scientists and educators who shaped its early development. Walking through the grounds today, you can sense how this academic heritage remains embedded in the physical spaces.

The grounds are partly open to visitors today and still show the field layouts from the founding period. It helps to arrive early in the day to enjoy the quietness and avoid disturbing any ongoing research activities.

A preserved research field is maintained today by students who work using the same methods as over 100 years ago. This ongoing practice links the present time with the scientific traditions of the school's founding era.
