Last updated: March 06, 2021

The house said to be the model for modern sericulture farms

This is the old residence and farmhouse of Yahei Tajima who perfected the modern sericulture technique called "Seiryo-iku", which focuses on ventilation. This is the first warmhouse for Seiryo-iku and the main characteristic of this two-story house is the "Yagura", window for ventilation on the roof.
This facility, with Tomioka Silk Mill, was registered as the world heritage.
