Tsugaru City Library

Tsugaru City Library is a public library in Tsugaru featuring three floors with reading and research areas throughout the building. The structure holds extensive book collections and provides dedicated spaces for visitors to study and browse materials.

The building was constructed in 1906 as a monument to Japanese victory in the Russo-Japanese War with Renaissance-style design. It was later repurposed to serve the community as a library facility.

The library maintains collections in both Japanese and foreign languages, creating a space where local residents gather for learning and community activities.

The library is accessible by bus from JR Hirosaki Station and operates during standard daytime hours. Visiting early in the day helps you find quieter reading spaces and browse materials more comfortably.

The building features two distinctive octagonal towers that stand out as its most striking architectural element. This unusual design makes it a visually notable landmark in the town.
