Teacher Senshokaku [non-public facility]

A modern Japanese-designed Western building that is still used as a guesthouse today.

A two-story wooden Western-style building built on a hill overlooking the No. 2 Dock. It was built in 1904 during the Mitsubishi Goshi Kaisha era as the residence of the Nagasaki Shipyard & Machinery Director. However, it was not used as the director's residence, but as a guest house.
In 1905, the year after its construction, Imperial Prince Higashifushiminiya Yorihito, captain of the warship Chiyoda, stayed at the hotel and named it ``Senshokaku,'' which means ``occupying the scenic beauty.''
Senshokaku, designed by Tatsuzo Sone, who studied under British architect Josiah Conder, remains in its original form and is still used as a state guesthouse for celebrations such as ship naming ceremonies and entertainment for distinguished guests. It is used for.
It is one of the 23 assets that make up the World Heritage Sites of Japan's Meiji Industrial Revolution, but it is a facility within Mitsubishi Heavy Industries' Nagasaki Shipyard and Machinery Works and is closed to the public.
