(Translated by Google) This beautiful government building, which stands out against the green lawn, was built in 1928. It was designed by Koichi Sato, who also designed Hibiya Public Hall and Waseda University's Okuma Auditorium. Maebashi, Takasaki, Isesaki, Annaka, Obata, Nanokaichi, Numata, Iwahana, and Tatebayashi prefectures were created in July 1877 by the abolition of feudal domains and establishment of prefectures. In October of the same year, eight prefectures, excluding Tatebayashi, were merged to establish Gunma Prefecture (first term), with the prefectural office in Takasaki. The following year, the prefectural office was temporarily moved to Maebashi, but in 1873, Gunma Prefecture merged with Saitama Tohoku and became Kumagaya Prefecture, with the prefectural office located in Kumagaya. In 1879, Kumagaya Prefecture was abolished, and Gunma Prefecture was reestablished (second term) by combining Ota, Kiryu, and Tatebayashi, which had been incorporated into Tochigi Prefecture. With this, it finally became the current appearance of "Gunma Prefecture in the shape of a crane." The prefectural office of the first Gunma prefecture was placed in Takasaki, but when the prefectural governor changed from Tadashi Aoyama to Hideharu Kawase, it was moved to Maebashi. After that, when the second Gunma prefecture was established, the prefectural office was initially decided to be Takasaki, but it seems that Takasaki was not enthusiastic about it. The army was stationed at the former Takasaki Castle, and as it was an important transportation hub for Nakasendo, commerce was also developing. Even if I preached that it would lead to development, I could not get active cooperation. Hearing this, the raw silk merchants of Maebashi actively launched a bid campaign, pooling funds of 30,000 ryo (approx. At the ruins of Maebashi Castle A prefectural office was established. After all these twists and turns, the new government building now shines against the blue sky next to the Showa government building (*^^*) (Original) 青い芝生に映える、この美しい庁舎は昭和三年に建築されたものです。設計者は日比谷公会堂や早稲田大学の大隈講堂も手がけた、佐藤功一氏です。 明治四年七月、廃藩置県によって、前橋、高崎、伊勢崎、安中、小幡、七日市、沼田、岩鼻、館林の各県が誕生しました。 同じ年の十月には、館林を除く八県が統合され、高崎に県庁を置く群馬県(第一次)が成立しました。 翌年、いったん県庁は前橋に移りますが、明治六年には、群馬県は埼玉東北部と合併して、熊谷に県庁を置く熊谷県となります。 そして明治九年、熊谷県は廃止となり、栃木県に組み入れられていた太田、桐生、館林などを併せて、再び群馬県が成立(第二次)しました。これで、ようやく「鶴舞う形の群馬県」の現在の姿となりました。 第一次群馬県の県庁は高崎に置かれましたが、県令が青山貞から河瀬秀治に替わると、前橋に移されました。 その後、第二次群馬県の成立に当たって、県庁は当初、高崎に決まっていましたが、当の高崎は乗り気ではなかったようです。 旧高崎城には陸軍が駐屯しており、中仙道の交通の要衝として、商業も発展していたので、熊谷県令から群馬県令になった楫取素彦が、県庁の設置は必ず町の発展につながると説いても、積極的な協力は得られませんでした。 これを聞いた前橋の生糸商人達は、むしろ積極的に招致運動に乗り出し、三万両の資金を出し合って、楫取県令が条件とした県庁舎と官舎を用意し、現在の場所である前橋城跡に 県庁が置かれることになりました。 このような紆余曲折を経て、いま昭和庁舎の横には、新庁舎が青空に映えています(*^^*)

(Translated by Google) Built in 1928, it is a national registered tangible cultural property. Currently, it is partly used as a rental conference room, and in the room that was once the governor's office, introductions to the prime ministers from Gunma Prefecture (there are four of them!) and a chronological table of prefectural government are displayed. In addition, it is often used for filming movies and dramas, and it is said that the 1st floor hall was used for filming "Wife of a Spy", which won the Silver Lion Award at the Venice International Film Festival. Furthermore, "Kamen Rider Saber" was also used as a location at the lawn square in front of the government building. However, in this CG, the government building was destroyed and burned, and the sky above was the entrance to a different space (sweat). (Original) 昭和3年に建築された、国登録有形文化財です。 現在は一部貸会議室として使用されてある他、知事室だった部屋は群馬県出身の総理大臣（なんと4名もいる！）の紹介や、県政の年表などが展示されています。 また、映画・ドラマの撮影でもよく使用されており、ベネチア国際映画祭で銀獅子賞を受賞した「スパイの妻」ては1Fホールが撮影に使用されたそうです。 更に、「仮面ライダーセイバー」でも庁舎前の芝生広場にてロケ使用されました。もっとも、これはCGで庁舎が破壊・炎上された上、上空が異空間への入口となってましたが（汗）。

(Translated by Google) Wanderer #1 Friday, July 23, 2021 Used for location. The main entrance was used as the "Niigata Prefectural Police Headquarters". The room is also used as a room for the ``Special Investigation Headquarters for the Serial Murder of Girls in Niigata Prefecture''. A girl goes missing, and the Niigata Prefectural Police Investigation Division 1 takes action. The girl was found, but there was a striking resemblance between a picture drawn by an amnesiac castaway (Hemingway) as a note and the location where the missing girl was found. A detective from the First Investigative Division visits Hemingway while he is in the hospital. Takumi Saito is a drifter. (Original) 漂着者#1 2021/7/23(金)　ロケに使われました。正面入口が“新潟県警察本部”として使われました。室内も“新潟県内女児連続殺人事件特別捜査本部”の部屋として使われています。女児が行方不明になり、新潟県警捜査一課が動きます。女児は発見されましたが、記憶喪失の漂着者(ヘミングウェイ)がメモとして描いた絵と行方不明の女児が発見された場所が酷似していました。やがて捜査一課刑事が入院中のヘミングウェイを訪ねて来ます。斎藤工が漂着者です。

(Translated by Google) Showa retro atmosphere drifts from here and there. But only the toilet was very modern. (Original) 昭和レトロな雰囲気が、此処彼処から漂いましす。でもトイレだけは、とても現代的でした。

(Translated by Google) Completed in 1928 (Showa 3). Currently, the central function of the government building has been transferred to the new government building in the back, and it is currently used as part of the government building under the name of 'Showa Government Building'. (Original) 昭和３年（1928）に竣工。 現在、庁舎の中枢機能は後方の新庁舎に移転、現在は「昭和庁舎」の名称で庁舎の一部として使われている。

(Translated by Google) It was a government building that was normally used before the current high-rise government building was built. It is a solid building with a very atmospheric atmosphere. I want you to keep it clean. You can visit inside. (Original) 高層ビルの現在の庁舎ができる前は普通に使われていた庁舎です。どっしりとしていて、とても雰囲気のある建物です。きちんと残しておいて欲しいです。中は見学できるようです。

(Translated by Google) I've been inside once, and I'm glad that I was able to see the sights I saw in newspapers and TV news up close. The Taiga Drama Hall, where NHK's Taiga drama "Hana Moyu" was being broadcast, was being held here, so I decided to ask. When I first heard that the Gunma Prefectural Office was originally located in Takasaki and later moved to Maebashi, I felt keenly aware of the importance of learning about local history. (Original) 一度中に入ったことがありますが、新聞やテレビのニュースで見た光景が実際に間近で見られたのが嬉しい限りです。NHKの大河ドラマ「花燃ゆ」が放送中に設置されていた大河ドラマ館がこちらで実施されていたので、一度尋ねることにしました。群馬県庁が当初高崎にあった後に前橋に移っていたことを初めて聞いて、地元の歴史を学ぶことの重要さを痛感した気がしました。

(Translated by Google) It is the old government building next to the current main government building. ("⌒∇⌒") It's made of thick and solid reinforced concrete, and you can enjoy a lot of retro atmosphere. The front hall on the first floor is very large, and I feel that the use of space is connected to modern times. 🤗 (Original) 現在の本庁舎の脇にある旧庁舎です。("⌒∇⌒") 太くがっしりとした鉄筋コンクリート作りと思われレトロな雰囲気がたっぷり味わえます。一階正面ホールがとても広く、空間の使い方に現代に繋がるものを感じます。🤗

(Translated by Google) From the outside, it looks like a historic government building, but the interior is quite modern. Wheelchair accessible Gunma citizens can enjoy the display of successive prime ministers and governor chronology (Original) 見た目は歴史ある庁舎だが、内部はかなり近代化されている 車椅子でも見学できる 歴代首相や知事年表の展示は群馬県民なら楽しめる内容

(Translated by Google) Government building with high historical value. The contrast with the modern government building, which boasts the highest height in Gunma Prefecture, feels good. (Original) 歴史的価値の高い庁舎。 近代的な群馬県一の高さを誇る庁舎との対比がイイ感じ。
