群馬県内の古代から現代に至るまでの様々な時代の史料が一堂に会する歴史博物館。 明治時代以降は国家としての統制が進むため、明治時代以降の展示はあまりその地域ならではの特色が薄く、それはこの歴史博物館でも当てはまる。しかし江戸時代まで(特に戦国時代まで)の史料は各地域で特色があり、特に群馬が辿ってきた歴史は目を見張るものがある。 関東地方と北陸地方の交通と運送と要衝の地である群馬は、群雄割拠の時代、常に覇権争いの只中に置かれていた。しかしそれ以前にも群馬は非常に魅力あるれる土地で、銅鏡等は東日本で最も出土されていたり、土地活用・行政にまつわる石碑が数多く存在する(複製であるがそれらの石碑も多く展示されている)。古墳の数も極めて多く、この博物館から北に1kmのところにある綿貫観音山古墳から発掘・出土された埴輪や副葬品(それらは全て国宝に指定されている)の多くが展示されている。 大人は300円で利用できるが、その価値を上回る程に興味深い展示品が並んでいる。1時間では全てを鑑賞することは出来ないだろう。

This is a history museum where historical materials from various periods in Gunma Prefecture, from ancient times to the present day, are gathered in one place. Since the Meiji era (1868-1912), Gunma Prefecture has been under national control. Exhibits in history museums from the Meiji era onward are less unique to the region. This is also true of this museum. However, the historical materials up to the Edo period (especially up to the Warring States period) are unique to each region, and the history of Gunma is particularly remarkable. Gunma, a major transportation hub between the Kanto and Hokuriku regions, was always in the middle of the struggle for supremacy during the era of the Warring States period. Even before that, however, Gunma was a very attractive place, with the largest number of bronze mirrors unearthed in eastern Japan, and many stone monuments related to land use and administration (many of these monuments are on display, although they are replicas). There are also an extremely large number of burial mounds, and many of the haniwa (clay figurines) and burial accessories (all of which are designated as national treasures) excavated and unearthed from the Watanuki Kannon-yama burial mound, located 1 km north of the museum, are on display. It costs 300 yen for adults, but the exhibits are more than worth it; you won't be able to see...

Learnt a lot about the history in Gunma as well as general history of Japan through the various historical periods. Loved the miniature dioramas and interactive screens with lots of info. They had English signage and also QR codes at every exhibit item to view more details about it through...

群馬県立歴史博物館 『大新田氏展』 2019.4.27~ 【櫛引八幡宮所蔵 国宝赤絲縅大鎧】 5月19日までの約3週間のみの展示でした。幸いなことに ギリギリで見ることがかないました。学芸員さんの説明では、赤絲縅大鎧<菊金物>は約40kgの重量があり、同じく櫛引八幡宮所蔵の白絲褄取大鎧は約30kg。これは白絲が実戦用の色彩が強いのに対して、赤絲縅大鎧はより儀礼的な奉納鎧であることを現しているとのこと。七百年の時空を超えて金色の光を放つ 大袖の菊金物〈菊一文字〉の美しさは重厚感にあふれ、節句人形の世界とは隔絶した 圧倒的な存在感。 【鉄製銀象眼兜鉢】 藤島神社所蔵 新田義貞所用と伝えられている兜。矧ぎ合わせ鉢の各筋には、「三十番神」という神々の神号が刻み込まれている。天照大神・祇園大明神〈スサノオ〉・諏訪大明神〈タケミナカタ〉などなど。戦に臨むにあたっての 新田義貞の祈願の気持ちの表れだ。

企画展以外の展示でも面白いもの有り、南北朝時代 群馬県=上野國=上州では、安中市・甘楽町で甲冑師集団が活動し、「上州鉢」と呼ばれる『小星』をあしらった独特の意匠の兜が製作されてようで、「六十二間星兜」などが展示されている。これは五月人形の別所実正さんの作品「阿古陀形星兜」のモデルなのかもしれない。 入口にはNHK大河ドラマ「太平記」で新田義貞役の根津甚八が着用した赤絲縅大鎧〈太田市新田庄歴史資料館〉も展示されていた。ちなみに足利尊氏役の真田広之着用した白絲褄取大鎧は隣県の足利市にあるそうだ。実際には足利尊氏は山城國の生まれのようですが・・・。

古代東国を代表する古墳の一大集積地上州。中でも太田市の天神山古墳は全長210mもの大きさがあり全国有数の規模。この博物館には近隣の高崎市観音山古墳の出土品が数多く展示されている。全国の国宝・重文の埴輪42件中、群馬県は19件を占め 埴輪王国でもある。まだまだ古墳調査は不足...

Very well done museum. They have a permanent exhibit regarding the history of Japan centered around Gunma preference. They cover ancient Japan to the present, but there is a larger focus on ancient history. Sufficient English signage.
