Branch Schoolhouse of Soro Elementary School
A small wooden schoolhouse in the hills of Kamogawa, Chiba. It opened in 1874 as Nishi Elementary School and in 1909 was merged with nearby schools to become a branch school of Soro Elementary School. It closed in 1967. Mikio Mizuta, the founder of Josai University, attended the school, and a monument and information board stand on the grounds. The schoolhouse floors and roof have collapsed and the site is off-limits, so please view it only from Prefectural Road 89 or from the neighboring shrine.
