Satsuma clan Mita Hantei mark - Minato City

When I was walking in Tamachi, there was such a monument in secret.

NEC's headquarters is located on the site of the Satsuma Domain Kamiyashiki. Speaking of course, it is part of the Satsuma clan Kamiyashiki.

There is a story of the following contents in the book of writer Tsunae Lock. The number of main owners of the great family in the Makusho system (from the battle of Sekigahara to the ruined prefecture) is 4,304. However, how many of (Naga) you (Kenji) in the evaluation of humanity in later life will be among them. At the end of the Edo period, one of the four wise lords, Echizen Fukui lord Matsuhira Harukoku (the great grandson of Yoshimune) was a man who did not give up too much. It is described in the person that the person had praised Shimazu very much. There is also a statement that the same thing was said to Makuhin Sakai of Makutomi. Shimazu Hitoshi was born in Sugamo's residence in Shiba, Edo. However, it was late forty-three when I became lord. In the long run, I will have a lot of hardships. There was a proverb (Satsuma, no fool, Hikone no fool), but it seems that the ability was particularly outstanding. In spite of the warmth that is unique to you, you have acquired advancedness and innovation, and at the same time, in some cases it has a fearless face, and it also has the ability to act. People from Satsuma at the time received a direct or indirect reverence. In particular, it seems that Takamori Saigo was influenced by the influence close to it, and built the foundation of the way of life and thinking of Saikyo on the basis of the thought of Saiki. Saika put him close to him in order to bring up Saigo. Chii also created a prototype of the Japanese flag (Hinomaru). It is said that Saigo wrote the character of Satsuma Tanuki House of the monument in this place. However, I did not know the location of this monument, and I went around a large building and missed it once at that time. I hoped to make it a little easier to understand. However, I sometimes thought that no one would come to see this monument on purpose.

Among the Satsuma mansion, it is the mark of the residence. There is only one stone monument sober. It is a community bus in Minato Ward, In front of the Shiba 5-chome stop. A part of the site is currently the headquarters of NEC (NEC). In fact, the central part of the house is on the north side of NEC Head Office, A square between Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank and the Celestine Hotel.

One piece when I passed in front of the ruins of the Satsuma-san Mita House in Tamachi, Mita! ! Satsuma-an is a large wall of 770,000 stones, and it seems that there were several houses in Edo! ! It seems that the center of the actual Satsuma residence was the neighboring Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank Shiba Building and the Celestine Hotel.

This is the place where the Edo Satsuma feudal clan's residence was burned down by the former Shogunate side, which was the cause of the outbreak of the Boshin War. Why did you get burned down? Satsunaga Dohi's modern school under government and military education does not teach, so please check each one. Only a stone monument stands in the building area, and there is nothing else that reminds me of the past. So, I hope you can expand your imagination and enjoy this historic site.

The remains of the Satsuma feudal clan's residence burning incident, which is said to be the beginning of the Boshin War. The mansion was burnt down and its vast site was called Satsumahara. Currently, it is an office district centered on the NEC headquarters building.
