2019文化財ウィーク展示資料解説p.5(12)「明治6年（1873）5月に皇居は失火により焼失し、明治12年（1879）に再建計画が本格的に始まりますが、その計画は何度も変更されています。これは明治13年（1880）に旧西丸跡に建設が計画された和風木造宮殿の平面図です。謁見所に京都御所の「紫宸殿（ししんでん）」や「小御所（こごしょ）」とほぼ同じ規模・平面形式が用いられ、名称もそのまま使われています。京都御所と似たものが計画された理由の一つとして、「即位礼」などをここで行うことが想定されていた可能性があります。（Plan for the Layout of Front and Inner Palace, to a scale of 1:700）The Imperial Palace was destroyed by fire in May 1873. Plans for reconstruction were initiated in 1879, but these plans were modified numerous times. This is a floor plan of a Japanese-style timber palace that was planned in 1880 for the former site of the Nishinomaru Palace. It was to be of almost precisely the same scale and layout of the shishinden and kogosho buildings in the Kyoto Imperial Palace, and the names of these buildings were also replicated. One of the reasons why the plans emulate the Kyoto Imperial Palace is that the building may have been intended to host the sokuirei and other accession rites.」
