中井家住宅

The Nakai Residence features black plaster exterior walls on the second floor, contrasting with white plaster eaves and rough lattice work at the entrance.

Built in 1792, this traditional merchant house belonged to the Nakai family, who served as town administrators between 1820 and 1842.

The residence preserves approximately one thousand historical documents from the Edo period, containing information about local administration and daily life.

The Nakai Residence stands at a 6-minute walk from Gose Station, though interior visits are restricted as the building remains a private residence.

The structure includes three registered cultural properties: the main building, a reception hall from the Meiji era, and a storehouse from 1916.
