Moroto Water Reservoir Ruin

It's nice to have a brick-and-mortar atmosphere.

Original Text

The remains of the Moroto Water Reservoir, which are all bricked with inner walls, are small, but they were spectacular to feel like ancient Rome.

Original Text

A water supply that was built by Seiroku Moroto, a master of Kuwana, in the seventh place in Japan. It is a facility that was used until 1945. It has been donated to Kuwana City and is preserved.

The remains of the modern water supply that was the first in the country ７

Original Text

It is the remains of a modern water supply made by Seiroku Moroto, the first wealthy merchant of Kuwana, by himself. Thanks to this, Kuwana City was the first water supply in ７ nationwide, and it was used from Meiji ３７ to Showa ４. It can be said to be a valuable modern industrial heritage, but now only the brick reservoir remains, and you can only tour through the wire mesh. It is located in a scenic hill, but it is difficult to understand the location and you can't reach it unless you go through a narrow road. A little more sightseeing ... including repairs of the remains itself in the future.
