National Archives of Modern Architecture, Architectural museum in Yushima, Japan.

The National Archives of Modern Architecture contains over 115,000 architectural documents, including drawings from notable architects across 3,200 square meters of space.

The Japanese government established this institution in 2012 following the Cabinet's approval of the Basic Policy on Culture and Arts promotion.

The facility preserves modern Japanese architectural materials through exhibitions, research spaces, and reading rooms while preventing valuable documents from leaving the country.

Visitors can access the archives from 10:00 AM to 4:30 PM with an entrance fee of 400 yen, excluding Mondays and year-end holidays.

The building houses theater curtains designed by Le Corbusier for the former Shibuya Pantheon Theater, alongside video oral histories of architectural practices.
