Shoanji Temple

Shoanji Temple is the family temple of the Imamiya family and the samurai group living in Tamachi. A monument commemorating Odano Naotake, a samurai from Kakunodate who drew the anatomical diagrams for Kaitai Shinsho, stands to the right of the temple gate. His talent was discovered by Hiraga Gennai, and he went to Edo, where he contributed to the development of Akita Western painting. In the cemetery behind the main hall, there is a small grave inscribed with the words "Zetsugaku Genshin Shinshi." This is the grave of Odano Naotake, and it seems to tell the story of his life, which was a crossroads of glory and misfortune.
