Gotoh Museum

The Gotoh Museum, set in a traditional architectural style, displays Japanese art collections, including ceramics, textiles, and ancient paintings within its exhibition spaces.

The museum, established in 1960 through the vision of railway executive Keita Gotoh, emerged from his dedication to collecting classical Japanese artworks throughout his life.

The institution maintains an extensive collection of ancient Buddhist scriptures, calligraphy works, and traditional mirrors, with five National Treasures among its 5,000 artifacts.

Located five minutes from Kaminoge Station on the Tokyu Oimachi Line, the museum welcomes visitors Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

The museum building, designed by architect Isoya Yoshida, incorporates elements of Shinden-zukuri architecture, reflecting the residential style of Heian period nobility.
