It is located in the middle of Tsuruoka City, next to Tsuruoka Park. Equipped with parking lot. Admission is 800 yen. Buildings related to the former Shonai clan and government office buildings after the Meiji Restoration have been relocated on the premises. There are many, so if you look inside all of them, it will take some time. The descendants of the former feudal lord (Sakai family) still seem to live in Tsuruoka.
