Built in 1255, the Bargello began as a palace but was converted to house the chief of police and serve as a prison in 1574. Since 1865 it has been a museum housing mainly sculpture including Bacchus, Pitti Tondo, Brutus and David-Apollo by Michelangelo and Donatello's David. Photography unfortunately isn't allowed in the museum; only the courtyard where executions used to take place (where the well currently is).
鈴ヶ森死刑場 (Suzugamori Shikeijō) Suzugamori Execution Grounds is probably the most famous and most accessible execution grounds of Edo (the name of Tōkyō before 1868). It’s located on the old Tōkaidō highway, near the old post town of Shinagawa. In the Edo Period, it was located next to the sea at Edo Bay. Today the former killing floor is the only bit of land that is still preserved and it is designated as one of the 100 Historic Spots of Shinagawa.
This is a 火刑台 kakei-dai a mount for the disposable pole to which a person burnt at the stake was bound.
A 14 year old, love smitten girl who started a fire that burned down a neighborhood block or two was executed at Suzugamori (arson was punished by burning alive). Her misguided actions and tragic death a immortalized in the stories of Japan and, in particular, in kabuki. Her name was 八百屋お七 Yaoya O-shichi and this sign marks the stone base where burning at the stake was done. Maybe this was the last thing she stood on before she was executed.
Because the locals believe the area is haunted, the neighbors and 大経寺 Daikyō-ji, the temple which tends to the souls of the executed, bring Rent is said to be cheap to attract tenants who don't mind dealing with ghosts of executed criminals.
