Yokoyama Local Culture Hall

Museum

👍 麻問屋や銀行を経営していた明治の豪商横山家。なるほど激動の時代であり、近代化へと突き進んでいった当時のエネルギーが随所に感じられる空間でした。貴重な資料、限りなく当時のままの建物や小物などがたくさん展示してあるので、予想以上に楽しめました。じっくりと見学しても小一時間で済むので、蔵の街に来たら是...

Bando Folk Museum Muse

Local history museum

👍 Thank you for your help in the stone monument exhibition. This is a project that will be fun for history buffs.

下野薬師寺歴史館

Local history museum

😐 20230602こっち方面に来たので、久しぶりに寄る。屋上に展望台があると気付いたが、雨で上れなかった。引き出しての説明が面白かった。受戒など、真言宗の学問所としての時代もあったんだ。歴文カードの第1弾は、またも品切れとのこと。再発行は未定。受付に合併前の町誌が置いてあったが、グリムの森マンホールカードの...

宮代町郷土資料館

Local history museum

👍👍 バランス良く地域の歴史が分かりやすく展示されています！正直、個人的には埼玉県でもかなり地味に部類に入ると考えていた宮代町。特急も停まる大ターミナル駅の東武動物公園駅を含め、町内に3つも東京に直結する東武伊勢崎線の駅がありながら、春日部のようにベッドタウンになりきれない。かといって岩槻のような歴史を...

Local history museum

👍 江戸時代に建てられた広大な敷地を持つ白石家戸長屋敷が接続する、地元ネタ満載の地方博物館です。ちなみに白石家屋敷は実写版「銀魂」やドラマ「信長協奏曲」の撮影にも使われているので、見覚えがある人もいるかもしれません。母家だけではなく門や蔵、離れが丸ごと残り、当時の人々の生活を彷彿とさせるのは高得点です...
