Museum of Ehime History and Culture

The Museum of Ehime History and Culture features four main exhibition halls focusing on prehistoric times, Middle Ages, Edo period, and modern era.

The museum opened its doors in November 1994 in the former Uwa town, which later merged with neighboring municipalities to form Seiyo city.

Exhibitions include full-size replicas of traditional houses, temples, shopping streets, and portable shrines that represent regional festivals and daily life.

Visitors can reach the museum by taking an express train to Unomachi Station, followed by a 20-minute walk through the surrounding area.

The museum library maintains an extensive collection of documents and artifacts that chronicle the development of Ehime prefecture through various periods.
