Saga Castle Hommaru History Museum

This museum building is a faithful reconstruction of the Saga Castle main palace, built by the tenth domain lord Nabeshima Naomasa in 1838. It was rebuilt based on archaeological findings, old photographs, and diagrams from the Edo Period. Only one-third of the original complex has been restored, but it is still the largest scale wooden building restoration project in Japan, and the first restoration of a castle’s main palace. More than 700 tatami mats cover the floor of this museum, and in this vast space, many exhibits introducing Saga in the 19th century can be seen in the form of historical materials, footage and models. You will find that this museum is completely flat; this is because it was originally designed as a flat-structured building on one level in the Edo Period. Now, allow yourself to slip back in time to Saga during the Edo Period. Please enjoy your visit.
