真岡市久保講堂

The Kubo Auditorium presents a symmetrical design with twin observation towers, horizontal balconies, and yellow mortar exterior walls spanning 715 square meters.

Built in 1938 as the Moka Elementary School auditorium, the structure was relocated to its current location in 1986 and registered as a cultural property in 1997.

The hall reflects the architectural style of Arata Endo, who studied under Frank Lloyd Wright, incorporating international design elements with Japanese traditional building methods.

Located 15 minutes by foot from Moka Station, the facility maintains public viewing hours from 8:30 to 17:15 on weekdays with advance reservations required.

The building combines a wooden two-story structure with Western-style truss techniques, featuring galleries on both sides and a large wooden floor space.
