Maizuru World Brick Museum

The Maizuru World Brick Museum displays international brick collections with explanatory panels, showcasing construction techniques and material applications throughout different periods.

Originally part of the Maizuru Naval District warehouses built between 1900 and 1921, the museum opened in November 1993 to preserve local industrial heritage.

The museum organizes regular workshops where participants learn traditional Japanese brick-making methods and examine specimens from multiple countries.

Located 20 minutes on foot from Higashi Maizuru Station, the museum operates daily from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, except during the December 29 to January 1 period.

Seven restored red brick warehouses form the museum complex, with buildings 2 and 3 housing exhibition spaces and buildings 4 and 5 serving as event venues.
