Remains of Oda Prefectural Office

In the early days of the Meiji Period, the office for Oda Prefecture was located here. Its remains are now part of the grounds of the present day Kasaoka Elementary School. The Oda Prefectural Office was abolished after only 3 years. During that time, Bokudo Inukai who was to become Prime Minister served here. Today the gate of the old prefectural office still stands as the gate for the elementary school and it has retained its original appearance.
