Introduction

The Kanagawa Prefectural Museum of History stands on Nihon-Odori in Yokohama, housed in a Meiji-era red-brick building (the former Yokohama Specie Bank head office), a National Important Cultural Property. Its core is Kanagawa's history from ancient to modern times — archaeology and folklore — with both permanent and special exhibitions, a window on Yokohama's port-opening and the prefecture's culture.
