This area is known as Kajiya-mawari (area of smiths). In the vicinity is the former site where nodatara (a method of smithing employed since ancient times up to the early modern period) was once practiced and where kera (iron lumps formed at the bottom during nodatara smithing) have been unearthed. 105 years ago, the first smith here returned here after his training and established his own smithery.
