The Former Hokkaido Government Office Building (Red Brick Office)
Heading west on Kita Sanjo Dori, you’ll see the old Hokkaido Government Office Building, known by the nickname “red brick,” standing as the street comes to a dead end. The former Hokkaido Government office building was used for approximately 80 years until a new government office was built. Constructed in 1888, the building is an example of American neo-baroque architecture. Architectural details such as the warped glass created in the Meiji Period and the heat-retaining double doors stored in an ornamental frame exude functional beauty. The building and its free historical exhibits about Hokkaido are open to the public. We recommend asking the volunteer staff for explanations about the building to appreciate its depth.
