About this place

Nagashima Museum (長島美術館, Nagashima bijutsukan) opened in Kagoshima, Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan, in 1989, the centenary of the city's official foundation. Located on a hill overlooking Sakurajima and Kagoshima Bay, at an elevation of 110 metres, the museum's collection of some thousand objects amassed by businessman Nagashima Kōsuke (長島公佑), includes works by Kuroda Seiki, Rodin, and Chagall, as well as Satsuma ware.
