concentric mansion

During the Kunohe Rebellion in Tensho 19 (1591), Asano Shigekichi, whose family was defending Toriyazaki Castle, left all but 30 men in one group under his command and formed the Hanamaki Doshin-gumi, moving to the castle's Ninomaru Babaguchi Gomon Shimoba. He was given a residence and lived in the area (today's south of Toriyazaki Shrine). It was relocated in March 1980 for preservation purposes, and is a highly valuable building from the late Edo period as a samurai residence in the style of a curved house from the feudal period. It has been designated as a cultural property by the city.
