Private House Open to the Public (Kanekoya’s Residence)
The Kaneko Family used to be shipbuilders. This house is thought to have been built in the early 19th century, when Shukunegi was at its height of prosperity. Just like other houses in Shukunegi, this house is a full, two-story house with plate walls. The skills and techniques of shipbuilders can be found everywhere; rope-and-pulley windows, for example.
