The building was then named “Reitenkan”, and a plaque written by KONOE Fumimaro was placed at the entrance. In 1969, with the opening of the “Osaka Prefectural Youth House”, the building was used as an auditorium, but in 2001 it was closed, and in 2004 it was transferred to Shimamoto-cho City, where it became the “Shimamoto-cho City Historical and Cultural Museum”. The building was renovated before the opening of the museum, but it retains the simple appearance of the time. It is built on an stone base, and has a traditional design with an Irimoya (hipped and gabled) roof and wooden clerestory windows (mokoshi). The gables are finished with wooden battens (Kiturekoushi) and decorated under the ridge with wooden carvings (gegyo).
