Shinkotoni Tondenhei Headquarters
The Tondenhei organization (Hokkaido’s military settler colonists) was made up of several battalions, then further divided into several companies. The 3rd Company of the 1st Tondenhei Battalion was based here in Shinkotoni and this building was constructed as their headquarters. This is a single-story building, but above the ceiling is a room with a triangular roof. Windows can also be seen when viewed from the side. A diorama of the Tondenhei village in those days, the company commander’s uniform, and other materials related to the Tondenhei are displayed in the building. The building was designated as a Tangible Cultural Property of Sapporo City on April 20, 1974.
