This museum is located in Takatsuki which is between Kyoto and
Osaka, and it is just five-minute walk from Takatsuki-jo Castle Site Museumof History (my previous post). The building was the merchant Sasai’s
house which was built around 300 years ago.
I like the lovely utensils especially a kind of kettles called “Douko”.
There are various kinds of Douko here, and I can picture that people enjoyed using them,
高槻市立しろあと歴史館から約五分、江戸中期の商家(高槻市指定有形文化財「旧笹井家住宅」)を利用した資料館だ。マニアックだが、湯沸かし器の銅壺(どうこ)が、沢山あったのが驚きだった。銅壺でお燗をしながら時を過ごすことは、幸せなことだと思う。
