Museum in The Kobe area

The Hyogo Prefectural Museum of Art opened in April of 2004. The museum's holdings consist of the collection held by the former Museum of Modern Art, a collection that amassed over the past 30 years. One of the main concepts of the Museum is to exist as an "amuseum", which means a museum promoting the spirit of the people. The museum is the largest in western Japan, with a floor space of approximately 27,500 m2. In addition to the exhibition spaces, there are a variety of large indoor and outdoor spaces. The museum exists not only for the appreciation of fine art, but also for encouraging exchanges between art and music, theater, film and for holding a wide variety of events.
