Pretty nice and well organized museum. A lot of the historical manuscripts are replicas. But the list the original's location. Most of them are in the Osaka Castle Museum and a more obscure one. There is an option when you enter to see the historical movies....please do this 100%. Normally the museum movies are meh and you are lucky if they are in English. This one has eng subs. The experience is somewhat Disneylandesque. They have fans in to emulate gusts of wind, the seats vibrate during battles also the screen wraps the side walls. View from the 5th floor can help you chart out your trip as a lot of key historical sites are visible. Very helpful staff!

This was a very good very informative museum. Before visiting I had a vague idea about the battle of Sekigahara. I understood the strokes, but didn't have a clear idea about what happened specifically or how it unfolded. After visiting the museum I had a very clear understanding of the major characters and events. There is good English support for all exhibits in the permanent collection and of the two animated videos that provide a lot of the historical information. The videos had rather high production value and were somehow engaging, as they tried to tell the narrative story of the battle, not the traditional dry explanation we often see at museums.

This is a very well done museum for the battle of sekigahara. The staff are all professional and well informed. I asked a question about the weight of the weapon and the person had the information on hand in a book which was neat they make sure to have the information at the ready. The quality of the tour you are put on was amazing. I enjoyed the movie and opening information display about the battle which was well done and quite entertaining. The observation deck at the top was great and offered views of all the encampments the warlords were at during the battle. Such a nice place and for 500 yen was well worth it.

Good: - the floor & 4D theater animation of Sekigahara battle lets u understand how the battle that determined premodern Japan in 20min. It was so good. - the exhibition is also interesting (but less artifacts than i thought) - ticket price of 500 yen is reasonable Bad: - they dun let u take any photo inside other than the view tower (which is good to look around the whole town where the battle took place)

This was a surreal experience. The short 20 minute movie was intense and gave you a sense of the intensity of the battle. The movie had English subtitles! The panoramic view of the entire battle site was insightful and sent chills down my spine imagining the thousands of people battling in such close proximity. I will go back many more times as there is so much information to digest in just one day.

平日 13時半 予約無し 入場料が500円と安過ぎて申し訳ないくらい、立派でとても充実した施設で大満足でした じっくり見過ぎ時間が足りなくなり、帰りに年間パスポート作りました。1,200円と驚きの金額でした 当日券差額お支払いで変更できました 1階のみ入場制限があり予約した方が無難です。私は予約無しで行きました。雪の為お客様少なく予約無しで入れました。 1階グランドビジョン、シアター 2階 展示室、体験コーナー 3階 セミナールーム 5階 展望室 グランドビジョンと言う、地面に映像を映し出す体験は初めてでワクワクしました。立見です、三半規管弱い人や、乗り物酔いしやすい人はご注意ください。私は途中少し目が回りました。 シアターは風や振動ある体験型でとても楽しかったです。戦場にいる臨時感が体験できるのは日本ではここだけかと思います。歴史への知識がかなり浅い私にも理解できるストーリーで勉強になりました。おススメです。 スタッフや、施設内、コロナ対策万全です 展望室は古戦場が一望でき、陣の跡等もわかりやすく、当時のスケール感がわかり大変良かったです 個人的には2階の体験コーナーの一角で放映されていたVTRが良かったです 関ヶ原に住んでいた村人 自分達の村がある日突然戦場に その時の暮らしや戦への準備、戦の跡の大変なご苦労等がわかる内容で、教科書やテレビでは取り上げられない所を知る事ができました 改めてご先祖様があっての今日の命なのだなと思いました JR関ヶ原駅から徒歩で行けるので歴史好きな遠方の方や、コロナ終息したら、外国の方に是非来ていただきたいなと思いました 私はスタッフじゃないですが 笑 When the corona is over, I definitely want you to go They have leaflets in English, Chinese, Korean, Spanish and French. Exhibits will be written in English in principle in addition to Japanese. In addition, English subtitles are displayed on the images of the theater and ground vision on the first floor, and English, French, and Chinese explanations are available for some images in the exhibition room.
