Okinawa's history
Let's dig into it

Okinawa's first prefectural museum and art museum. It was built in 1946, right after the Battle of Okinawa, so it has a deep meaning for Okinawa!

The museum exhibits materials from various fields including earth science, biology, humanity, archaeology, folklore, history, and arts and crafts, while the art museum showcases modern and contemporary art created in Okinawa, including oil paintings, watercolors, sculptures, prints, photographs, and videos.
