Setagaya Daikan Yashiki
A five-minute walk from Kamimachi Station as well as the Kamimachi bus stop. A historic site situated on the same grounds as the Setagaya Local History Museum, this structure was designated a Metropolitan Historic Site in 1952 and a National Important Cultural Property in 1978. The site was the official governmental residence of the Oba family, whose members served as daikan (prefectural governor) for generations from the mid-Edo period onward. The site is also the only extant daimyo (feudal lord) daikan residence in Tokyo. At one point, the residence underwent renovations but was later restored to its original appearance for historical conservation reasons. The residence' tatami mat shoin study is currently located in Saitama Prefecture due to preservation.
