Matsusaka Merchant Museum

Ozu Seizaemon was one of the most successful merchants of the Edo period, and his well-preserved timber-framed home, originally built in the late 17th century, is testament to his wealth. An English pamphlet explains the history of Matsusaka's merchant culture and the significance of the artefacts on display.
