Museum of the Imperial Collections

[1] It showcases a changing exhibition of a part of the imperial household treasures.

The Imperial family donated 6,000 pieces of art to the Japanese government in 1989.

Therefore, the existing museum will be rebuilt and the exhibition room will be expanded to 1,300 square meters.

[3] In July 2021, the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, in response to a proposal made by the Imperial Household Agency, decided to designate five cultural properties as National Treasures in the first stage of the designation, including Mōko Shūrai Ekotoba, an emakimono depicting the Mongol invasion of Japan, Karajishi-zu Byōbu, a byōbu by Kano Eitoku, and Dōshoku sai-e, a painting by Ito Jakuchu.
