Surprisingly good! The first floor is free. There is a cafe, gift shop and some displays where you can learn about the festivals of Morioka. The second floor costs 300 yen and displays the history of Morioka and a special exhibit. Definitely recommend, even if you just watch the videos of life in Morioka in 1923. There isn't a lot of English signage, but I was surprised by the quality of the displays. You can also see a pocket watch and pistol given to the Nambu clan by Queen Victoria for helping some sailors.

Across yet another wonderful garden from the now gone castle grounds this museum was a pleasant surprise on a side trip triggered by lost sunglasses. Some iconic images are available and it is pleasing to see the local community seems keen on castle rebuild per the dedicated exhibit room - always room for one more jo.

Museum of Morioka City history. Very well organized exhibition with educational materials from different eras. If you wish to learn more about this city, this is the place to be.

Sehr schönes Stadtmuseum mit toller Austellung zur Geschichte Moriokas, Brauchtum, Burg und dem Nambu Clan. Die Austellungen auf Etage 1 sind kostenfrei und die der zweiten Etage kosten Nur 300yen. Es gibt einen super Online Audioguide auf Englisch den man mit dem Smartphone abhören kann. Hat mir sehr gut gefallen und ich wurde umfassend unterhalten und informiert.

Very interesting to see old documents, armor and other items. They have an English audio guide, so bring your headphones.
