This museum houses a permanent collection of historical materials from primitive antiquity to modern times, as well as arts and crafts and ancient documents. In the spacious grounds, there are also relocated farmhouse buildings from the Edo period and Western-style school buildings from the Meiji period, which can be visited. Every year in November, about 60 ginkgo trees in the garden change color and the rows of ginkgo trees are lit up.
