Miniatures Museum of Taiwan

The Miniatures Museum of Taiwan displays thousands of handcrafted miniature pieces at 1:12 scale, including dollhouses, room boxes, and detailed architectural models. The works come from different countries and show houses, streets, and interiors as they would appear in real life.

The museum was founded in 1997 and became the first specialized miniature museum in Asia. It connects to the tradition of German-speaking collectors who created miniatures for their private collections as early as the 16th century.

The collection presents miniature works from different countries and cultures, representing various architectural styles and living traditions. Visitors can see how people lived in different periods, from European townhouses to American country estates.

The museum sits in central Taipei and is easily accessible by public transport. Visitors should plan enough time to explore all displays and notice the small details that make each miniature work special.

The Rose Mansion, a masterwork by a British artist, stands at the center of the collection and draws visitors for its fine craftsmanship. The work took several years to complete and is recognized internationally as one of the finest miniature homes.
