DISCOVER FUKUI

Katsuyama Castle Museum is a registered museum that opened in 1992, featuring a five-story, six-level keep. As a keep-style structure, it boasts the tallest height in Japan at 57.8 meters from the stone foundation to the shachi roof ornaments.

Inside, the museum displays armor and textiles passed down through various feudal lords' families, along with folding screens depicting battles from across the country. Additionally, it houses and permanently exhibits embroidery works from China's Qing Dynasty and pieces related to the local calligrapher Nishiwaki Gosei.

Furthermore, the observation room on the top floor offers panoramic views of Katsuyama cityscape, including its landscape with history dating back to the Paleolithic era, the beautiful natural scenery registered as a Geopark, and the former grounds of Hakusan Heisenji Temple, designated as a National Historic Site.
