| The name 'Muromachi' was derived from the Muromachi-dono, which was built by Yoshimitsu ASHIKAGA, the third Ashikaga Shogun, to serve as the public residence of the Shogun (commonly known as Hana no Gosho, this residence is located in what is now Kamigyo Ward, Kyoto City). |
「室町」という呼称は、3代将軍足利義満が将軍の公邸として造営した室町殿（通称・花の御所、現在の京都市上京区）に由来している。 |
