Nihonkirisuto Kyodan Oiso Church

Official name "Christian church of Japan Christian Church Oiso church" "Protestant church built in Oiso since 1900". A wooden church built in 1964, a registered tangible cultural property of the country, a scenic important building of the town. Due to aging, we have reached the decision of rebuilding, but with the cooperation of neighbors who love this building, kindergarten alumni, and the Japanese Architectural Institute, with the opportunity of the farewell tour society open church, we fully renovated in 2015 It is renovated, still in its simple but pure and beautiful form. Request of the Building Standards Law, enhancement of functions as a modern building / meeting place, more than anything more than new construction costs. Even in Oiso, I was deeply impressed that the former luxurious villa was left untouched with roughness, burned down in a fire, and historic buildings were lost rapidly. When examining the process of preservation, the church members who ultimately decided to save and realized, designers who solved various problems, recognized administrative agencies and responded flexibly. Even with such a small building, you can feel the difficulty and value of leaving. Building facing Tokaido Oto Oiso inn, it is an appearance based on Gothic style of cusp arch. The entrance pouch in the center, the gable's overhanging on the left and right. Romanesque style as jagged in front of gable. The chapel is a high ceiling to the roof, a small room in the front of the 2nd floor is characteristic. It is said that it is recognized as "worthwhile to pass through the war damage", "to keep the original", "there is no similar example" "communicate the history of the propagation of the church at the design". Incidentally, although it is apt to overlook by the way, the gate and the wall also keep the figure of the former, registered tangible cultural property. Taking a break and doing an open church, you can enjoy the chapels and the inside even though things like us who are not believers. As a church website also says, "When you stop by nearby, please try to see the interior of the church again", so please do not hesitate to make this historical construction thing, faith and was filling in there, you experience the feeling to protect what is valuable.

Buildings and people are wonderful churches.
