Oita Bank Red Brick Building
A nostalgic landmark bank designed by the architect behind Tokyo Station
In Oita’s city center, the stately Oita Bank Red Brick Building was built in 1913 and feels like a step back in time. Designed by modern-architecture master Kingo Tatsuno, who is also known for Tokyo Station, the Oita Bank Red Brick Building is a nationally registered Tangible Cultural Property. The beauty of his signature "Tatsuno style" vividly contrasts red bricks with white granite, making it a true city icon. The building still functions as a bank branch, and some areas may open for public viewing or events. Enjoy a nostalgic walk as you feel the deep history of this building and take in more than a century of stories.
