Shitamori Sake Brewery is located in the Sabumi area of Tsuwano, where the Takatsu River meets one of its tributaries. The Shitamori family served Tsuwano Domain as village headmen from the 12th year of the Genroku era (1699) until the 5th year of the Meiji era (1872). After the end of the Edo-period political system, the family established a sake brewery and made significant contributions to the development of the local community.
The main gate, rice storehouse, and plaster walls surrounding the front garden preserve the atmosphere of the family’s time as village headmen. The main building dates from the beginning of the Meiji period (1868) and features an elegant inner garden, as well as paintings on sliding doors and wooden panels created by professional artists.
The inner garden, surrounded by storehouses and brewery buildings, includes a 10-metre-high concrete chimney, which has become a symbol of the area.
Please note that these properties are mostly private residences.
Visitors are kindly requested not to enter the gardens or buildings without prior permission from the owners.

⑯下森酒造場
下森家は左鐙地区の高津川と横道川が合流する地にあって、元禄１２年（1699)から明治５年(1872)まで庄屋をつとめた。その後酒造業を始めるとともに、代々地域の発展に多大な貢献を行ってきた。正面の門や土蔵造の米蔵、前庭を囲う土塀などは庄屋時代の面影を残している。主屋は明治初期の建物で、座敷を中心に意匠性が高く、襖絵や板絵には絵師による絵画が描かれている。醸造場や蔵に囲まれた中庭には高さ10mのコンクリート製の煙突が残され、地域のシンボルとなっている。
