Ito Municipal Kinoshita-Mokutaro Museum

3.5

This is a memorial museum for Mokutaro Kinoshita, who was born in Ito City’s Yukawa and was active in a wide variety of fields including medicine, literature, poetry, and art. The mud-walled construction of the building, which is characteristic for its Namako-kabe walls (walls covered with square tiles jointed with raised plaster) is a restoration of the home in which Mokutaro was born. In addition to displaying the first editions of Mokutaro’s poetry and plays, paintings, and notes that he wrote as a student, visitors can also catch a glimpse at life in his day through the daily implements from people in his birthplace as well as the Ota house. It is approximately five minutes on foot from Ito Station.

なまこ壁の記念館の建物は登録有形文化財に指定されています。伊東ゆかりの文化人とのことですが、休館日でした。
