Sakai City Museum

A museum modeled after the exterior of Ryusho Elementary School, built atop Mikuni Hill in 1879.

It was renovated in 2023, changing its name from "Mikuni Ryusho-kan" to "Sakai City Museum."

With the slogan "Playful excitement, fascinating knowledge," it presents Sakai City's history and culture in an easy-to-understand manner.

The view from the 4th-floor observation room, overlooking the Sea of Japan to Mount Hakusan, is also outstanding.
