💡 Recommended Points

The architecture itself is a highlight! The space has been restored to its Meiji-era appearance, with handrails and brickwork.

The museum focuses on late 19th-century Western art, including works by Toulouse-Lautrec and Dom Redon.

With Café 1894, Store 1894, and an archive room, you can fully immerse yourself in art.

A spot where you can enjoy both culture and a stroll in the sophisticated atmosphere of Marunouchi.
