"Kogoro Katsura and Ikumatsu" Exhibition

Ryozen Museum of History

This event has ended.

It has been 130 years since the death of Takayoshi Kido, formerly named as Kogoro Katsura. Kido married Ikumatsu, who also renamed herself and became Matsuko. Matsuko was a proud supporter of Kido, who was a prominent figure in various political movements leading to the Meiji Restoration. Last year, the museum received many resources on Kido and the people involved in his life. Approximately 100 pieces will be on display that have not yet been viewed by the public.
