Yatomi City History and Folklore Museum

The Yatomi City History and Folklore Museum presents a broad collection of artifacts, documents, and displays about the history and customs of the local population. The galleries show both contemporary and traditional aspects of life in this region.

The institution moved to its current location in April 2022 from its previous site, allowing it to expand and better preserve regional heritage. This relocation made it possible to display collections more effectively and welcome more visitors.

The museum displays traditional tools, textiles, and household items that show how people lived in this region across generations. These objects help visitors understand how daily work and craft practices changed over time.

The museum offers educational programs, guided tours, and workshops throughout the year for different age groups, allowing for deeper engagement with the displayed collections. Visitors should check ahead to see what special activities are happening during their visit.

The museum focuses particularly on the historical connection between Yatomi and goldfish cultivation, a craft that still holds great importance in the local identity. These specialized exhibitions show the skills and traditions passed down through generations.
