Nishimura Memorial Museum

The Nishimura Memorial Museum features architectural designs, personal documents, and artifacts that showcase the professional accomplishments of architect Isaku Nishimura.

The museum opened its doors in 1914 as a residence and now stands as a historic house museum that tells the story of early 20th-century Japanese architecture.

Exhibits within the museum demonstrate the integration of Japanese architectural methods with Western construction techniques that characterized Nishimura's design approach.

Located in central Shingu, the museum welcomes visitors daily from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with guided tours available in Japanese and English.

The building holds the designation of Important Cultural Property of Japan due to its architectural elements and historical documentation of Nishimura's work.
