滋賀会館, Administrative building in Otsu, Japan

The Shiga Kaikan occupied a central location near the Shiga Prefecture Government Office, connected through an underground passage to facilitate administrative operations.

The Shiga Kaikan opened on June 15, 1954, with Prince Takamatsu attending the ceremony, following the reconstruction project after a fire destroyed the previous building.

The building contained a public hall, hotel, wedding venue, and library, serving the local population through multiple functions under a single structure.

A cinema hall addition in 1995 transformed the facility into a public-private partnership, screening independent films until the building closed in September 2013.

The construction of this building prompted the creation of the Shiga Prefecture Anthem, commemorated by a stone monument that was later relocated after demolition.
