Fudenosato Kōbō

筆の里工房

Fudenosato Kobo in Kumano Town, Hiroshima Prefecture, is a museum dedicated to Kumano brushes and to ideas about the future of brush culture. Visitors can explore exhibitions, watch brush-making demonstrations, join workshops or classes, and browse select shops and a restaurant on site. It is a strong stop for travelers interested in craft heritage rather than a quick photo-only attraction. Check exhibition calendars and closed days before you go, because special shows rotate through the year. The museum pairs well with a broader Hiroshima craft or countryside day when you want hands-on context. Come for tangible brush history, maker skill, and practical browsing in one place.
