Uroko House (Former Harrier Residence)

Uroko House (Former Harrier Residence) is located in Kobe Kitano Ijinkan district, an area where Western-style residences built by foreign settlers line the hillside following the opening of Kobe Port. Of the more than 30 historic foreign residences that still remain today, Uroko House was the first to be opened to the public. It is believed to have been built in the former foreign settlement in the late Meiji period and later relocated to its current site during the Taisho era. The building is designated as a Registered Tangible Cultural Property of Japan and is also selected as one of Hyogo Prefecture’s Top 100 Historic Houses.
