The aim of this paper is to clarify the existence and origin of yagura-yashiki (town house with tower) in joukamachi (castle town) ; which is found in the folding screens depicting the townscape of joukamachi . I considered yagura-yashiki in other joukamachi; Osaka, Tottori, Fushimi and so on, and recognized the facts that yagura-yashiki was built at the corner site in the center of joukamachi, and that at Osaka it was originaly built for the purpose of public use in the early Keichou period (1597-99). In the next paper I will consider the function and meaning of yagura- yashiki. Contents are as follows ; Preface 1. yagura-yashiki at Osaka 2. yagura-yashiki at Tottori, Fushimi and Aizu-wakamatsu 3.
