Tokugawa Art Museum, Art museum in Tokugawacho, Nagoya, Japan

The Tokugawa Art Museum is an art museum in Tokugawachō that displays treasures from the Owari Tokugawa family, including swords, armor, tea ceremony objects, and precious scrolls. The building follows the Imperial Crown architectural style and combines functional exhibition spaces with thoughtfully designed areas.

The museum was founded in 1935 and houses a collection that traces back to Tokugawa Ieyasu. The collection encompasses objects gathered and preserved by the family over several centuries.

The museum displays how feudal lords arranged and cared for their most precious objects in their residences. The reconstructed palace architecture conveys a sense of the elegance and refinement of aristocratic life.

The museum is near a train station and easily accessible on foot. A visit is easy to plan because the rooms are clearly organized and information materials are available.

The museum houses the Genji Scrolls, among the oldest known pictorial depictions of a classical Japanese literary work. These precious manuscripts display carefully painted scenes from the famous novel and provide insight into the craftsmanship of earlier times.
