Naegi Tōyama Historical Museum

The Naegi Tōyama Historical Museum is an institution in Nakatsugawa that displays artifacts, documents, and photographs about the region's history. The exhibition shows materials from different periods and includes an archive area with research materials.

The museum was founded in 1990 to preserve the heritage of the Tōyama family, who ruled from Naegi Castle. This fortress played an important role in local history and was a center of power in the area for multiple generations.

The collection shows everyday objects from earlier generations and helps visitors understand how people lived in this region. You see tools, clothing, and household items that give direct insight into past ways of life.

The museum offers guided tours and educational programs for student groups, researchers, and community groups. Visitors can access research materials in the archive area and have time to explore the exhibitions at their own pace.

The museum sits near the ruins of Naegi Castle and displays objects connected to this fortress. The castle is known for its red clay walls, which stand out from the typical white architecture of other castles.
