Since 1829, we have been producing salt from the seawater of the Seto Inland Sea.

This is a representative residence in Setouchi built by Buzaemon Nozaki, a founder who has made a fortune in the salt industry and rice field development since the late Edo period.

It has been designated as a national important cultural property as a residence of a wealthy merchant with a magnificent scale.

As a registered museum, the museum also strives to preserve and utilize cultural properties.
