Samurai House Karoyashiki

Japan, 668-0214 98-9 Uchimachi, Izushicho, Toyooka City, Hyogo Prefecture

Karoyashiki was used as a residential dwelling by Izushi Domain’s feudal retainer, and it is said to be the only samurai residence left within Izushi Castle Town. Izushi Castle was conceived within three concentric baileys, with this residence originally situated in the castle’s third outer level located near the manor of the daimyo (feudal lord) and administrative office. Karoyashiki has since been moved to its current location. From this information, one can surmise that the master of this home was the karo (senior retainer) to the Izushi Domain. Exhibits in Karoyashiki focus on the annual Izushi Castle Festival, held every year in November.
