Sosha city walk

Original Text

I stopped by for a walk around the area from Higashisosha Station. It is free near Soshagu. There was an explanation for a simple exhibition to the person in the hall. Old photos of the surrounding area were exhibited on the first floor. On the second floor, there was an exhibition about regional industries such as pharmaceutical sales, and I was able to know about Sosha ○

the history of sosha city

Original Text

A local museum that also used the former Soja Police Station. The volunteer explained it to me. I didn't know that Soja was a drug-selling town along with Toyama. I'm sure Kosuke Kanedaichi also came to this former sosha police station.

木造建物

昔は警察署だったそうで、とても味のある木造建築です。2階も見学可能。地域の歴史や民具を所狭しと展示していて、あまり大きな建物ではなかったですが楽しむことができました。

登録有形文化財の旧総社警察署建物

登録有形文化財の旧総社警察署建物を利用した博物館です。周囲には旧商家風の建物も多く、寧ろ違和感の無い建築となっていました。内部には地元の資料等々が展示されていましたが、利用者は少ないようでした。
