Yokohama Archives of History
Yokohama Archives of History is a museum located close to Yamashita Park in Yokohama which is open to the general public and collects materials relating to the history of Yokohama. It holds in excess of about 250,000 documents related to such topics as Yokohama’s history and culture, the harbor and the port and the economy from the end of the Edo period to the early Showa period. It plays a role to communicate the history of modern Yokohama to future generations. The “Tamakusu tree” in the courtyard, managed to survive even though it was damaged by fire and an earthquake, is also a highlight which is a symbol of Yokohama open port.
