During the Edo period, firefighting at townhouses was handled by the local firefighting team. However, for the Matsuda family, this importance was reflected in the establishment of a permanent firefighting team headquartered at Edo Castle, as well as their involvement in firefighting in other major territories of the shogunate. Firefighting costumes of daimyo (feudal lords) often featured fabric similar to that used in military uniforms.
