Former Koga Family Residence

Built in 1884 as the residence of Zenpei Koga, who founded and served as president of the Koga Bank, it left Koga's hands after the dissolution of the bank and was used as a ryotei (Japanese-style restaurant) from 1954, after which it became the property of the city and was designated an important cultural property by Saga City in 1995. It is said to have followed the style of samurai residences, as it has an irimoya-zukuri roof instead of the gabled roofs typical of town houses along highways.
