Sekigahara Warland, Military museum and open-air exhibition space in Sekigahara, Japan

Sekigahara Warland is a museum that opened in 1964 in Sekigahara, Gifu Prefecture. Its roughly 30,000 m² grounds hold over 200 concrete figures of Sengoku commanders and foot soldiers, made by Asano Shōun and arranged in East and West army positions based on historical records. An indoor hall displays armor and matchlock guns.

Sekigahara Warland opened in 1964 on a site of about 30,000 m² in Sekigahara, the battlefield of the 1600 Battle of Sekigahara. The open-air grounds reconstruct the Eastern and Western army positions with over 200 concrete figures of generals and foot soldiers, made by sculptor Asano Shōun. An indoor museum displays armour and matchlock guns used at the time.

The park's soundtrack is "Aa Kessen no Sekigahara", a 1958 song by Endo Minoru and Matsuyama Keiko, played on loop across the grounds. Since 2019 the site has hosted the Sekigahara Furin Matsuri wind-chime festival, and since 2024 the Sekigahara Wagasa Monogatari umbrella event, both run to draw visitors to the town.

The grounds can be explored easily on foot, with information signs at various points explaining historical positions and troop movements across the area. It is advisable to wear sturdy shoes and allow time to thoroughly explore all exhibition zones.

The more than 200 concrete figures were made by sculptor Asano Shōun, whose style is realistic yet humorous. Most depict foot soldiers and gunners rather than famous commanders such as Tokugawa Ieyasu and Ishida Mitsunari. The park plays the 1958 song "Aa Kessen no Sekigahara" as background music.
