Kobe City Museum - visitor guide

神戸市立博物館

Kobe City Museum occupies a former bank building in the old foreign settlement, giving its collections an architectural connection to the city's international past. Archaeology, maps and works associated with cultural exchange trace relationships extending beyond the modern port. Check the current exhibition program, then look at the surrounding streets as another part of that history.
