The museum was built in Ome City, where he is an honourary citizen, to honour his outstanding achievements and to prevent the dispersal of his many valuable materials and pass them on to future generations.
The museum contains Western and Japanese-style facilities built between the Edo (1603-1867) and Meiji (1868-1912) periods. Together with its beautiful garden, it creates a temporal journey for visitors.
