Open-Air Stages in Iida-Shimoina area had been built since late 18th century to the Showa 30s, especially 69 stages still exist. There are 11 rotation-stages, 1 stage for only puppet play, and the oldest existing rotation-stage is built in 1793. They have architectural features about a rotation-stage (Mawari-butai), a scenery window (Tomi), a instrument space (Dayuza), and so on.
These stages had been used by kabuki, puppet, and local play till the Showa 30s. Some stages had been used for school buildings after Meiji era. After that, almost these have been repaired for local meeting spaces.
