Sunomata Local History Museum, History museum in Ogaki, Japan

Located near the confluence of the Sai and Nagara Rivers, this museum exhibits documents, photographs, and artifacts relating to regional Japanese history.

The museum opened in 1991 to preserve and display artifacts connected to Sunomata Castle, which Toyotomi Hideyoshi constructed during the siege of Gifu Castle.

The exhibition halls contain detailed models depicting Sunomata Castle's design, samurai weapons, armor, and a helmet bowl recovered from archaeological excavations.

Visitors can access the museum via regular bus services from Ogaki Station, with guided tours available that explain the strategic importance of the location.

From the museum grounds, guests can view both Gifu Castle to the north and the modern skyscrapers of Nagoya Station, spanning centuries of Japanese development.
