Gas Museum

Gas Museum

Welcome to the Gas Museum. Here you can learn about how gas—now a common energy source for heat—first came to Japan and revolutionized the daily lives of the Japanese people. You can also see the many ways gas has been used over the years.
We hope you enjoy your visit!

The House of Gas Lamps
The House of Gas Lamps traces the history of gas lighting in Japan, from the discovery of gas in Europe to the popularization of gas lamps in households across the country. Let’s take a look!

The House of Gas for Life
The House of Gas for Life shows the many ways in which gas has been used through the years. You can see just how the technology used by families changed over time to develop into the ovens, heaters, and other gas-powered systems we use today.
