    瓦美術館の横にある公園で大きな竜の陶製の壁でぐるりと囲まれています。また園内には獅子舞のえんちょこ獅子発祥の碑がありました。

    何度も訪れても飽きない常設型の瓦展示でした。平成30年11月4日(土)には高円宮妃久子さまが11月3日に行われた「地域伝統芸能による豊かなまちづくり大会あいち・なごや・日本の祭りinあいち・なごや2018」が開催された後に立ち寄られた美術館です。とても癒される時間になります。美術館前の森前公園も瓦オブジェでとても楽しかったです。
  • 見ごたえある瓦

    瓦で造られた造形美術がガラスケースに入って並んでいました。普段屋根の上についているものですが、かなり細かな模様などに驚きます。瓦の歴史や文化なども勉強できます。
