Shin-ike Haniwa Production Site

Shin-ike Haniwa Production Site, Archaeological park in Takatsuki, Japan.

The Shin-ike Haniwa Production Site contains preserved workshops and kilns dedicated to manufacturing clay figures used in ancient burial practices.

During the Kofun period, this factory produced terracotta clay figures called haniwa, which were placed around burial mounds throughout the region.

The archaeological site reveals manufacturing techniques for haniwa figures, including human forms, animals, and objects from daily life in ancient Japan.

The park welcomes visitors from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM daily, offering guided tours and workshops where participants learn traditional clay figure making.

Archaeological excavations at the site uncovered numerous intact haniwa fragments, making it one of the largest discovered production centers in Japan.
