Flow of the course

About this spot

Located at the foot of the Sumoto Castle Ruins, this museum introduces the history and culture of Awaji Island and traces Sumoto's development as a castle town. It also comes in handy as a rest spot where you can escape the summer heat and study at leisure in the cool interior, and knowing the background of the evening's Awaji Island Festival will let you savor the festival's excitement all the more deeply. It's a compact facility, so a short visit is enough to see everything.
