This mansion was home to a powerful family that continued from the middle ages. All buildings including the main house, warehouse, gates and artifacts inside are registered as important cultural assets in Japan. 

江川邸（韮山役所跡）

Interesting historical display. Could use more English signage.

The volunteers' explanations were very good, and some surprising facts were found .

This is a reasonably small, yet impressively well maintained piece of Japanese history. If you're visiting the reverberatory furnace too, you can get one ticket for both and save.

This as very high in height traditional Japanese house.  Inside is a little museum.  There are additional buildings like tool storage with various artifacts.

Here you can see the typical classical architecture around here.
