Trace the path of Japan’s industrialization in this automotive museum 

This museum was founded and curated by the Toyota Group, the world-leading automaker that started as a manufacturer of textile looms. It shines a spotlight on Japan’s remarkable history of technological advancement, innovation, and modernization.

Visitors can observe the technological transition of the spinning and weaving machines, and the original machines dating from 1890. These were the foundation for the manufacturing methods and principles the company employs to this day. Up next is the Automobile Pavilion, that explains why and how the business expanded into the automobile industry. Visitors also get a bird's-eye view of automobiles being assembled. Children will particularly enjoy Technoland, a hands-on exhibit where visitors can experience the joy of creation.

Conveniently located just minutes from central Nagoya’s Sako Station, this museum is a perfect half-day destination for technology lovers.
