Shimonoseki City Museum of History (下関市立歴史博物館, Shimonoseki Shiritsu Rekishi Hakubutsukan) is a public museum that opened in Shimonoseki, Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan, in 2016.
History
In 1933 the Former Nagato Sonjōdō (旧長門尊攘堂), inspired by the Sonjōdō (尊攘堂) in Kyōto, was completed in the grounds of Kōzan-ji, in reinforced concrete dressed with stone and with a double tile roof reminiscent of the nearby temple hall; the twentieth-century building is now a registered Tangible Cultural Property. This subsequently became the private Chōfu Museum (長府博物館), then from 1 April 1980, with the donation of both the facilities and the collection, the Shimonoseki City Chōfu Museum (下関市立長府博物館), before reopening nearby in new buildings in 2016 under its current name.
