Morioka Takuboku and Kenji Museum
Morioka Takuboku and Kenji Museum, Literary museum in Morioka, Japan.
The Morioka Takuboku and Kenji Museum occupies a former bank building with Romanesque Revival architecture and exhibits works of two regional writers.
The structure, designed by architect Tsutomu Yokohama, opened in 1910 as the headquarters of Dai Kuju Bank before its transformation into a cultural institution.
The museum displays original manuscripts, photographs, and personal items belonging to writers Takuboku Ishikawa and Kenji Miyazawa, representing Japanese literary heritage.
