Learn About the Town's History and the Chiba Clan at a Castle-Style Building
About this spot
A museum affectionately known as 'Chiba Castle' for its impressive castle-style exterior built on the elevated Inohana Park. The museum features exhibits about the medieval Chiba clan's rule of the area and the town's development. From the top floor modeled after a castle keep, you can also view the cityscape. Learning about the town's origins before exploring downtown Chiba deepens your understanding of the festival's central venue.
