Yokohama City Hasseiden Local Museum

The three-story octagonal building features multiple triangular tiled roofs and houses exhibits about local history, fishing tools, and agricultural implements.

Kenzo Adachi established the museum in 1933 and donated it to Yokohama City in 1937, when it received its current name Hasseiden Archives of Local History.

The museum displays life-size statues of eight influential figures including Nichiren, Shinran, Socrates, Christ, Prince Shotoku, Kobo, Confucious, and Shakyamuni around a central mirror.

Visitors can reach the museum by taking buses 54, 91, or 97 from JR Negishi Station to the Honmoku Shimin Koen Mae stop.

The second floor contains a reconstructed private house from the Meiji era, complete with original furniture and domestic items from that period.
