The Nagasaki Buried Archaeological Museum is a nationally designated Important Traditional Buildings Conservation Area. The traditional building is the Higashiyamate Western-style Building (Building D). A designated Tangible Cultural Property of the city, it is located next to the Nagasaki City Antiquarium Museum and exhibits antiques. The building's simple interior and exterior design and decoration suggest it served as a company dormitory or rental housing during the settlement period. Such a large group of residential ruins still survives today, making it a rare sight in Japan.
If you're just taking photos and taking a quick look, about 20 minutes is sufficient. If you'd like to fully explore the museum's exhibits and documents, you can plan for an hour-long stay.
