Tetsurō Hoshino Museum, Biographical museum in Suō-Ōshima, Japan.

The Tetsurō Hoshino Museum exhibits personal artifacts, multimedia presentations, and a collection of works from the renowned Japanese songwriter through dedicated display areas.

The museum, designed by architect AXS Satow and opened in July 2007, preserves the legacy of Tetsurō Hoshino, creator of songs like Otoko-ha-tsuraiyo and Namidabune.

Visitors can explore the Hoshino Theatre for performance videos, examine the Enka-song box collection, and experience a recreation of his preferred Shinjuku bar, Sakurai.

The museum stands at Oaza Hirano 417-11, accessible by a 44-minute bus ride from JR Obatake Station or a 60-minute journey from Kuga IC.

The museum features the Hoshino Song Pub and Hoshino Hakuhinkan sections, where guests can engage with interactive exhibits about Japanese songwriting techniques.
