Nagano Prefectural Art Museum

The Nagano Prefectural Art Museum features exhibitions of fine art across multiple floors, connected by horizontal pathways designed for effortless navigation throughout the building.

Originally established in 1966 as the Shinano Art Museum, the institution underwent extensive reconstruction and reopened in April 2021 with modernized facilities and expanded collections.

The museum houses over 4,600 artworks, including paintings by Japanese masters Hishida Shunsō, Nakamura Fusetsu, and Fujishima Takeji, representing regional artistic excellence.

Located near Zenkoji Temple, the museum welcomes visitors Thursday through Tuesday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM with an entrance fee of 700 yen.

The Higashiyama Kaii Gallery, an annex to the main museum, maintains a collection of 970 works, including 36 original pieces by the namesake artist.
