Yūbari Coal Mine Museum, Mining museum in Coal History Village, Yubari, Japan.

The Yūbari Coal Mine Museum features exhibits displaying mining equipment, tools, and documents that detail the coal extraction methods across different periods.

Established in 1980, the museum preserves the heritage of Yubari's coal mining operations that supported Japan's industrial growth from the Meiji to Showa periods.

The museum contains a collection of personal stories, photographs, and artifacts that illustrate the daily lives of miners who worked in Yubari's coal mines.

Located at 7 Takamatsu, the museum operates from late April to early November, with regular hours from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, except during winter months.

Visitors can explore Japan's only publicly accessible mining tunnel registered as a tangible cultural property, derived from the former Hokutan Yubari Coal Mine.
