Yokohama Archives of History Museum

A museum on Yokohama's history, mostly centered on the 19th century when the city opened up to other countries. I was able to learn a lot of things thanks to the detailed explanations. I recommend this museum if you want to learn more about how Yokohama, like other Japanese cities, became a hub of entry for western culture in Japan at the time.

friendly and helpful staff in answering my enquiries and my purchases of books and maps. I hope I can come back again for future special exhibitions

Such a great place to visit to learn about Yokohama history but very little English explanation in detail. It seems like they want foreigners to know very little about Yokohama history. .. I use Google translator to read all details in Japanese. hope to see more Enlish explanation.

A very small museum with historical tree in the garden. The story of the tree and pictures are wonderful.

Very nice and beautiful building. The museum shop is excellent. Beautiful postcards in a very good price.

Great little place to learn some Yokohama history. Compare the maps to what the Marina and docks are now!

Historic place

Very well laid out museum. Interesting mementos of the past with historical papers, diaries, daily items, artist drawings from the time. As well, the center tree is lovely.
