This is the ruins where people made iron by mixing iron sand with charcoal in a hearth and using “Fuigo” (a bellows) in Edo period. This hearth is called “TaTara”, and people operated this hearth 3 times 1751～1764, 1812～1822, 1855～1867. Iron made in place was used for the battleship “Heishinmaru” which was built by the domain of Hagi during the end of Edo period.
Shoukasonjuku
This is the private school where Shoin Yoshida educated disciples. Shoin Yoshida intended to build a country assimilating education, science and industry of eastern countries. Many of his disciples succeeded to his will and did their best to build a modern nation. Many of talented people who played important role in Japanese modernization and industrialization learned at this school.

There is still large scale of seawall remains.
