Suibara Magistrate Samurai Office

Historical Monument
A restoration of the government office established on the grounds of the former SuibaraCastlein1746 to establish the direct control of the Shogunate. Reproduced is the public office where official duties including civil affairs and managing land taxes would be performed, the Shirasu court of law where criminals would be examined, and the offices where government officials would perform their duties. The area governed by this office was not restricted to Agano City but spread as far as the northern areas of Niigata City, Shibata City, and Tainai City, an area said to range from nearly 20 to 340 square kilometers. Positioned next to the Suibara Furusato Agricultural History Museum many visitors visit both locations together.

    水原駅から瓢湖に行く途中にあり立ち寄りました。江戸時代に幕府の直轄領地を置いた代官所で再建された建物です。水原親憲(ちかのり)の武者姿が入口付近にあり、昔の代官所を観ることができました○
  • う-ん、きれい。

    江戸時代、裁判などをつかさどる場所だったそうですね。とてもきれいで、歴史的なところに来たという感じはあまりしませんでした。人形が置かれてい当時を再現されているところもありました。入場料は300円でJAFカードがあれば割引してくれます。
  • 江戸時代の代官所の様子を勉強出来ました。

    江戸幕府の直轄地として地元の司法や行政を司り、さらに年貢の取り立てという重責を担った処です。裁判の様子などは人形で見ることが出来て興味深いと思います。またスタッフの方の元気な声もあり少し嬉しい気分ですね。余計な事ですが観光周遊バスの運転手もそうでしたが旅行者に親切な方が水原に多いですね。
