Website | Map | add to Travel Bag (NEW)
Opened in 1981, and housed in the former British Consulate, the archives building was rebuilt in 1931, after having been destroyed in the Kanto earthquake in 1923. The first floor of the Archives gives one an overview of the opening of Japan, with the coming of Commodore Perry. The second floor is used for periodic exhibits, often highlighting early foreign residents and their business. The extensive reading room has not only English language newspapers (published in Shanghai, London, Yokohama and Kobe during the treaty port years until 1923), but also rare first-edition books, mainly from the two major collections of Don Brown and Paul Blum.
