NHK Archives, Broadcasting archive in Kami-Aoki, Japan

The archive opened in February 2003 as a central repository for preserving content from NHK, which began radio broadcasting in 1925 and television in 1953.

The facility holds thousands of recordings documenting Japanese society, including interviews with notable figures and coverage of significant national events.

Visitors can access over 10,000 programs through viewing terminals at the facility, with selected content available through their online platform.
