in a residential area?

I happened to find it while wandering by car while looking for the ruins of Hinoe Castle. It is located in an ordinary alley in a residential area. There is no parking lot, but there are not many cars and there are not many cars, so I stopped by and saw it. I really just stop by.

Seminario site near the site of Hinoe Jo castle

Original Text

It was located in a residential area behind the ruins of Hinoe Castle, and I had a hard time finding a place. There were small guide signs here and there on the road, and I arrived on it. A stone monument and information board are built in front of the private house. It says, "Arima's seminar was here," but I'm surprised that it was really in such a place. Here, it is a place where four Tensho-Ken European Boys' Envoys also learned. Just by standing in a historic place, you will be impressed.

It is difficult to understand because there are historical sites standing in the town. At the origin of Catholic education in Japan, four Tensho-envoys of European boys also learned here. I want to listen to the breath of those days.
