A stone dedicated to Lord [[Shimazu Shigehide]], who founded the [[Zoshikan|Zôshikan]] [[han schools|''han'' school]] in [[1773]], was erected in 1942. Another stone marker associated with Shigehide commemorates the treasure house, known as the Shûchinhôko, which he maintained at the Shimazu clan's [[Satsuma Edo mansion|Edo mansion]] at Takanawa. There, he kept rare plants and animals, local products from various places across Japan and overseas, and conducted efforts in classification and research. This stone was moved to Kagoshima in 2000 from the former site of the Edo mansion, in Yukigaya, Ôta-ku, Tokyo. Another stone, erected in [[1912]], commemorates the visit of the [[Meiji Emperor]] to Kagoshima on imperial tour in [[1872]]. </ins></div></td></tr>
