Kanemori Warehouse District
The Kanemori Red Brick Warehouse was the first commercial warehouse in Hakodate. It was established by Watanabe Kumashiro (1840–1907), a merchant who started his warehouse business in 1887. This bayside warehouse, along with the nearby Hakodate Meijikan (Old Main Post Office) and former merchant houses, conveys a sense of the city’s rich history.
