Yūbari Rokumeikan

The Yūbari Rokumeikan features a combination of Japanese and Western architectural styles, with wooden single-story construction covering 1,609 square meters.

Built in 1913 as a guest house for the Hokkaido Coal and Ship Company, the facility underwent significant renovations in 1954 for Emperor Showa's visit.

The museum represents the peak of coal mining prosperity in Hokkaido, displaying the social hierarchy and corporate entertainment culture of early 20th century Japan.

Located 25 minutes from the Yūbari Interchange of the Doto Expressway, the museum houses exhibition spaces and historical rooms from the mining era.

The building served as an exclusive club for upper-class visitors and company executives, featuring private meeting rooms and luxurious accommodation facilities.
