Tokugawa Iemochi
Inside the post station, there were two "honjin" and 32 other inns among the 458 structures that stretched approximately 1.6 km, as was recorded in 1863. In 1864, Tokugawa Iemochi, the fourteenth "shōgun" of Japan, stayed at one of the two "honjin", though his visit was preceded in 1863 by Tokugawa Yoshinobu, who became the fifteenth "shōgun" of Japan. There is not much remaining of the original buildings today, but there is an archives museum dedicated to the former post town in Konan.
