Tondabayashi "The Nakamura Family's House"

The Nakamura Family's House

The Nakamura family's house

Cultural Property Designated by the Osaka Prefectural Government
Edo Period

Like the Sugiyama family, the Nakamura family held a long-standing sake brewery. In the mid Edo Period, its sake production scale was the largest in the Kawachi Province, the eastern part of what is now Osaka Prefecture. According to an old document, Yoshida Shoin (1830-59), a scholar and ideologue of the Royalist party movement, stayed at the house for more than 20 days before the end of the Edo Period.
Its main building was constructed between 1782-83, retaining the architectural design common among old large-scale tradesman's houses in Osaka and Kyoto.
(This is the Nakamura family's private house and is not open to the public.)
