Anma Historical Museum and Samurai House

Anma Historical Museum and Samurai House is a samurai residence that was built after the first year of Tenpo (1830). It was completely renovated from October 1994 to March 1995 and is now open to the public as a historical museum.

Overview of the Anma family

From its construction after the first year of Tenpo (1830) the building was used as a samurai residence by the Anma family for generations. Around the 8th year of Tempo (1838) the head of the family had an annual income of “12 koku and 3 people” (Prosperity level was evaluated in terms of amounts of rice. One koku is equivalent to one person’s rice consumption in a year. One ‘person’ is equivalent to 5 bales of rice.) The building is an L-shaped, gabled, thatch house with a frontage of 13 m and a depth of 15 m. It is well preserved and became a Designated Cultural Property of Sasayama City on March 23, 1994.

Within the building you can see ancient documents left by the Anma family, tableware, and furniture used in daily life, as well as weapons and materials related to the Sasayama Clan that were donated.
