Takaoka Municipal Museum, City museum at Takaoka Castle Park, Japan.
The Takaoka Municipal Museum displays exhibits within a building designed by architect Tokusaburō Kimura in the former castle grounds of central Takaoka.
The museum opened in 1970 on the site of Takaoka Castle, which was constructed in 1609 and dismantled in 1615 under Tokugawa shogunate regulations.
The museum contains exhibitions comparing the Takaoka Daibutsu with the Great Buddha of Todaiji Temple and presents information about regional prominent families.
Located 15 minutes on foot from Takaoka Station, the museum opens from 9:00 to 17:00, with final entry at 16:30, and closes on Mondays.
The museum stands within Takaoka Castle Park, surrounded by more than 1,000 cherry trees and ancient moats that now offer boat cruises.
