About this place

To open to the public the Nihonga that Hayashi Gunichi, founder of the Hayashi Art Foundation, collected over more than 30 years, it was set up on June 1, 1987 (Showa 62) on the 2nd floor of the Hayashi Telempu Co., Ltd. head office building in Kamimaezu, Naka Ward, Nagoya. However, this was a provisional opening, and on May 3, 1992 (Heisei 4) it moved to its present location and formally opened.
