It displays valuable historical materials and traditional artifacts and antiques from its diverse collection. Through unique exhibits and experiences such as large-screen videos, quizzes, and puzzles, you can experience Nagasaki as it was in those days. The Sunday-only skit in the ‘Oshirasu (a place of judgment in the Edo period, like a court of law today)’ is also popular.
