Completed in 1875, it is the oldest existing pseudo-Western-style building among domestic school buildings and is designated as an important cultural property. It is also called the drum tower or the gearman tower. The parking lot was a little confusing and I went around the building. The road on the left side of the building site is now available to the parking lot. It seems that it is also a parking lot in the adjacent park.

It is a pseudo-Western-style school in Saku City. It is the oldest pseudo-Western-style school in Japan and older than Matsumoto's Kaichi School.

There is a museum next door, but it's a pity that there is no exhibition that was systematic because I didn't get the impression that I collected old ones in the neighborhood.

Worth a look.

Revisit Saku City for a reason. An old school building with stained glass. It is well maintained and the staff are kind. Old Yamaha organ can also be played. It's interesting to see letters that comfort students and textbooks at that time. Steam locomotives and gasoline trains that ran on the Koumi Line on the premises. It is a static preservation that railway lovers cannot bear.
