One of the antique western style mansion complex in this area. Relatively big and more to see...colored glass windows and Japanese room are something to see.
There's a cafe using a part of it.
It is a traditional building in my neighborhood.
I love the Futabakan.It played an important role to promote electrification in Japan at Meiji era.
One of many interesting houses in this Cultural Path of Nagoya (Bunka no Michi). We didn't go into the house due to time constraints, but wandering the grounds and admiring the architecture was also a treat! The Sightseeing Bus (Me-guru) stops right outside this house, and is worth the 500yen price as it takes u thru a loop of the city covering many interesting places!
Futaba Museum is the former home of Japan’s first actress, Sadayakko Kawakami, and Momosuke Fukuzawa, a power station pioneer and tycoon. The house, was built in 1920, but originally located in Higashi-Futaba-cho. It was relocated to its current location in 2000 and restoration was completed in 2005. The residence is now a designated cultural property.The house, nicknamed the “Futaba Palace”, had a revolutionary design and the interior was stocked with electrical fittings that were groundbreaking at the time. Such was the influence of the occupants, that the house was regularly visited by political, financial, and cultural guests.
Guided tours are available, which last 30 minutes but are conducted in Japanese, though a detailed English leaflet is available. Entry is 200 Yen.The closest metro station is Takaoka Station (Sakuradori Line) or you can take the sightseeing bus which has a stop right outside the museum.
Among the many Western-style buildings nationwide, it is coquettish and photogenic.
There is a feeling of cleanliness, and every corner is well maintained.
A space like a stage set that makes heavy use of stained glass.
But it's not cheap and how much cost did you spend at that time?
It's not hard to imagine.
A graceful space that is completely different from the simple and robust Japanese-Western mix is worth a visit.
