Sapporo Agricultural School's Farm No.2

Historical landmark

Arishima Takeo's Old House

Historical landmark

👍👍 The former Takeo Arishima residence is located on the grounds of the Art Museum. It seems that Arishima himself conceived the idea, but his wife passed away the year after it was built, so he only lived in it for one year.
