Yokoyama Art Museum

The Yokoyama Art Museum contains Japanese pottery and ceramics collections, including western-style ceramics produced during the Meiji and Taisho periods.

Established in 2017, the museum exhibits pottery that originated in Nagoya and was exported internationally, including early Noritake pieces from Japan's industrialization period.

The permanent collection presents Sumida-yaki ceramics in systematic arrangements, demonstrating the evolution of Japanese pottery techniques and export practices.

Located four minutes from Shinsakae-machi Station on the Higashiyama subway line, the museum operates from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM with varying admission fees.

The museum specializes in collecting Japanese export ceramics that have returned to their origin country after being sold abroad during the Meiji period.
