Konoikeshindenkaisho Museum

[A 'old' space in a present day's town]
Shinden, where both paddy and dry field were developed after the survey by the Edo shogunate and the local daimyo domains in tne eary Edo period, are found in many places in Japan. In the middle of Edo period (1705-7), the Lake Shinga-ike beside the Neya River in the central Kawachi plain of Osaka was reclaimed and exploited as shinden by Zen'emon Munetoshi and his son Zenjiro of Konoike family, one of the great merchants. Konoikeshindenkaisho was established in 1707 as the central facility for the management of farming and tenants, and had been used until 1950. Thereafter several traditional architectures and garden have been remained in the site of 10,662 square meters with the surrounding moat.
