Ogai Mori Former Residence

Mori Ogai from Tsuwano was a literary master from the Meiji period, who was also a military doctor. The former residence of Mori Ogai is the home he lived in until he was 10 years of age. He passed away leaving a will which stated, “I want to die as Rintaro Mori from Shimane Prefecture”. From this we can also see his thoughts towards Tsuwano. In the garden there is a monument carved with Ogai’s poem “Botan” which is engraved with Sato Haruo’s writing brush. In addition, you can see pictures and letters related to Ogai at the Mori Ogai Memorial Museum which is adjacent.
