Yamamoto samurai house

Mon, July 16, 2018, by
The Yamamoto residence is one of the 3 samurai houses that can be visited in the Shimabara Teppo-cho ("Gun Town"). It belonged to a family that served the lord Matsudaira for 13 generations, fulfilling important roles.

Built during the first year of the Meiji Period, just a few years before the samurai class was abolished, the Yamamoto samurai house illustrates the last samurais way of living.
