Funai Castle, also called Oita Castle, was completed in 1602. At that time, it had a 4-story keep, but wars and fires destroyed the keep and much of the castle grounds. Only two structures dating back to the Edo Period remain, the Shumon Turret dating back to 1859, and the Hitojichi Turret which dates back to 1861. Other structures, such as the Otemon Gate and surrounding walls, are modern reconstructions. The keep was never rebuilt.There are some cherry trees in the park surrounding the castle.

Built by renowned architect Shigeru Ban, the building is as much of an attraction as the art inside. The museum's permanent collection contains over 3,000 works from artists from around Oita Prefecture. There are also special exhibits, including international exhibits, that change throughout the year.

A sake brewery established in the Edo Period. Visitors can enter the historic building, see displays about sake production, and view a small garden. The site also has a restaurant and a souvenir shop where you can buy sake and other goods.
