Toyoma Jinjo Elementary School Building

Reference/Local/Exhibition/Literature Museum
A history museum located in the Tome-cho neighborhood of Tome City, known as Miyagi Prefecture's Meiji Village due to its many historical buildings. The museum conveys what education was like for a typical Japanese school student from the Meiji to the Taisho periods. The building itself was a real elementary school building in 1888. The school was designed by Kisaburo Yamazoe, the first Japanese person to travel to the west to study architecture. Inside, real desks and chairs from the school's heyday as well as life-sized mannequins show what schooling looked like at the time.

    登米教育資料館は、旧登米高等尋常小学校で、明治の洋風学校を代表する建築物として昭和56年(1981)に重要文化財に指定された非常に貴重な建物です。また、この場所は、連続テレビ小説 おかえりモネ のロケ地 にもなっています。
  • 木造校舎が在りし日の子供たちを偲ばせます

    校舎の中には明治からの教科書、授業風景、裁縫室には古いミシンやアイロン、また皇室の方々の写真と教室ごとに展示を変えています。子供たちと行って説明してあげて下さい。楽しいひとときになるでしょう。
