Imashirozuka Ancient History Museum, History museum at Gungeshinmachi, Takatsuki, Japan

The Imashirozuka Ancient History Museum displays numerous clay figures and artifacts recovered from the adjacent sixth-century burial mound measuring 350 meters in length.

The museum preserves artifacts from Emperor Keitai's era, including the largest house-shaped haniwa discovered in Japan during archaeological excavations since 1997.

The exhibition halls present collections of ceremonial clay figures depicting warriors, animals, and daily life objects from the Kofun period burial practices.

The museum opens from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM with free admission, offering parking facilities and convenient access from Settsu-Tonda Station.

The museum stands next to a complete haniwa ritual precinct containing 190 clay figures arranged in their original formation from the sixth century.
