Niigata Prefectural Government Memorial Hall, Historical government building and museum in Ichibanboridōri-chō, Niigata, Japan.

The Niigata Prefectural Government Memorial Hall features chalk-white plaster walls and a symmetrical tower at its center, representing the Giyōfū architectural style.

Built in 1883 as a parliament building, the structure served governmental functions until 1932 and reopened as a memorial hall in April 1975.

The memorial hall displays numerous historical documents, administrative records, and exhibits that illustrate the political evolution of Niigata Prefecture through different periods.

Located in Hakusan Park, the memorial hall opens from 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM, except Mondays and holidays, with free admission for all visitors.

The building received extensive earthquake-resistant renovations in 2020, maintaining its structural integrity while preserving its original architectural elements.
