Tōfū Memorial Museum, Calligraphy art museum in Matsukawadochō, Japan.

The Tōfū Memorial Museum is a gallery dedicated to traditional Japanese calligraphy art in Matsukawadochō. The building houses original manuscripts, artist tools, and several exhibition spaces that display the craft and its development over centuries.

The museum was established to preserve the legacy of a master calligrapher from Japan's Heian period. Its founding in the 1980s helped document this ancient artistic tradition for future generations.

Calligraphy here represents a form of personal expression deeply rooted in Japanese artistic tradition. The works on display show how brushwork became a way for artists to reveal their character and refinement.

The museum is easy to reach and offers guided tours suitable for both beginners and experienced visitors. Plan to spend several hours exploring all the exhibitions at a comfortable pace.

The museum preserves actual writings from the Heian period that are rarely seen elsewhere. Through these original sources, visitors can see how brushwork and technique evolved across centuries.
