静岡 中村家住宅 Shizuoka Nakamura-ke-jyuutaku The Nakamura Family’s Residence in Shizuoka

Jp En


The residence of the Nakamura family located in Yuto-cho Ubumi, Nishi-ku, Hamamatsu City, Shizuoka Pref. is a historic Japanese house, which is nationally designated as an Important Cultural Property. In 1483, the head of the Nakamura clan, Nakamura Masazane, became a retainer of the Imagawa clan and moved to the village of Ubumi. In the 16th century, when the province was ruled by the Imagawa clan, the Nakamura clan served as the local governor and controlled military ships on Lake Hamana. Later, the Nakamura clan served for the Tokugawa clan and was appointed as the Imagiri military ship and food supply administrator (Imagiri Gunsen Hyoro Bugyo).
The residence is presumed to have been built around 1688. It is a one-storied house in Yosemune-zukuri style with a large thatched roof. Surrounded with trees growing in a huge premise of 3,000 square meters, this historic house is well preserved as the treasure of the town. From 2001 to 2003, the house was demolished and restored to the present form.
