Ashiya City Museum of Art and History

The Ashiya City Museum of Art and History is a city museum that displays collections of regional artworks and historical objects across multiple floors. The exhibition spaces are organized for different types of works, from paintings to historical artifacts from the area.

The museum was founded in 1991 to preserve and display the artistic and historical heritage of the Ashiya region. Its establishment was an important effort to gather local artworks and stories for future generations.

The museum displays works by local and Japanese artists, showing how traditional art forms remain active in the region today. Visitors can see which artistic techniques and styles people here value and pass down.

The museum is open Tuesday through Sunday during typical daytime hours and welcomes visitors throughout the week. It is easy to reach on foot from the station area, and staff at the entrance can guide you through the galleries.

The museum runs a special program called 'Manabihaku Room' that connects visitors with artistic techniques and historical themes. This interactive offering lets people explore artistic traditions in a hands-on way.
