Designed by the notable architect Itō Chūta, who also designed the Tsukiji Hongan-ji temple in Tokyo, this building located nearby Nishi Hongan-ji hosts today a museum and an exposition hall.

Built 123 years ago, in the middle of the Meiji Period, it is a quintessence of several architectural styles and originally belonged to an insurance company associated to the Hongan-ji sect.
