Handa Shiritsu Hakubutsukan, Municipal museum in Handa, Japan.

Handa Shiritsu Hakubutsukan is a municipal museum that displays objects, documents, and handmade crafts from the local area. The exhibitions cover different aspects of the region's history and daily life as they developed over time.

The museum was founded in 1984 to preserve the maritime history and cultural development of the city. This mission arose from a desire to safeguard the region's heritage for future generations.

The museum displays pottery made by regional craftspeople whose techniques have been passed down through generations and shaped how people here see themselves. These objects remain central to how the community understands its artistic roots.

The museum has different exhibition areas and gardens on the grounds where you can walk between collections. There are ramps and some accessible areas, though not all parts are equally easy to reach.

The grounds combine museum spaces with planted gardens where visitors can divide their time between indoor collections and outdoor areas. This blend of exhibitions and green space is uncommon for museums in the region.
