Taku-city Local Museum

多久市郷土資料館

Taku City’s local museums include a history and folklore museum and a local history museum that together cover life from the Meiji through Showa eras, fossils, archaeology, and seasonal special exhibitions. City materials note permanent fossil and archaeological displays, plus galleries on local figures such as Japan’s first doctor of electrical engineering Shida Rinzaburo, coal magnate Takatori Koreyoshi, and Edo-period Confucian scholar Kusaba Kaigan. Visitors can learn Taku’s history from ancient times to the modern period.
