[Kobe Foreigners' Houses: Rhine House]

This is a rare house among the foreign-style houses that can be viewed for free!

It is not as flashy as Ben's House, the Italian House, or the Western-style Tenement House,
but it has a refined and calm atmosphere. 😉👍✨

The name "Rhine House" was chosen from a nickname contest held by local residents, and the winner said that it was because "the horizontal lines of the clapboards of this house are beautiful."

It is also said that the name was chosen after the Rhine River in Germany, where Mr. Oberlein lived just before the city of Kobe purchased the house, so it seems to have two meanings! ✨️
