    Gifu Takayama-shi Kamisannomachi 69
    The characteristic heavy facade of this museum of folk art is modeled after the gate of the second wall of Takayama Castle. The museum houses a collection of approximately 2,500 pieces of antiques and folk art amassed over 70 years by Takayama's resident doctor, Tadaichi Fujii. The building in which the collection is displayed is a clay structure built over five years using all cypress wood in the Edoman style. The building has walls that are nearly one meter thick. The wide-ranging collection contains, among other things, Kyoho dolls made over 270 years ago, hanging scrolls by Yokoyama Taikan and Ikkyu, and Kutani and Imari ware.

    高山の古い町並・上三之町にある。医師・藤井糺一が収集した古美術品・古民芸品などを展示。入館料700円。展示室内撮影不可。入口の門は高山城二の丸の登城門を総檜造りで復元したもの。土蔵を改修した3層の展示室には、陶器、漆器、家具、書、人形、着物、武具などが所狭しと並んでいるが高山ならではというものはない。「高山の美術民芸」館ではなく、「高山にある」美術民芸館である。

A tour of the prefecture’s traditional architecture will take you from the mountain-enveloped wooden streets of Takayama to the mountain village of Shirakawago, where visitors can explore 250-year-old thatched roofed houses known as gassho-zukuri.
