I thought the admission fee would be a little high, but it was well worth it! The staff will go around with you and guide you. You will be asked at the entrance if you need a guide, so it is of course possible to tour without one, but if you ask, you will understand better and hear some useful stories. What is especially noteworthy is that you can tour the factory in operation! I don't have many opportunities to see it, and after seeing various handlooms, I am impressed by the progress of civilization when I see a mechanical loom. The structure of the building was also unique, and I was impressed by the fact that it was not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing. The shop at the entrance sells handmade miscellaneous goods and products with motifs of loom props. The prices were reasonable, so I bought some small souvenirs and small items for myself. I also have a very good impression of the cheerful and polite staff.

(Translated by Google) An experience-based textile museum that "moves, touches, and lives." Old looms and valuable materials are on display. We went around the building with the person who explained. It's easy to understand because you actually move the weaving machine and explain it, and you can ask questions if you don't understand. Why is the roof here jagged and the windows open to the north? I was surprised to learn that people have been spinning threads and weaving cloth since BC😲 I was surprised at how human wisdom changed after the emergence of the jacquard weaving machine😲 You explained it better and I was drawn in. I learned a lot! Souvenirs are also sold here! I bought eight pieces of cloth. I'm going to make a panel! I have experienced it elsewhere before, but it seems that you can also experience indigo dyeing here. We may have a reservation, so please listen! As an aside, I came to understand why Gunma women are strong. The economic base was strengthened because weavers and female workers were active. "Kakaa Tenka" Banzai ＼(^o^)／ (Original) 「動く、さわれる、生きている」体験型の織物博物館。 古い織り機や貴重な資料等が展示されています。 私達は説明してくださる方と建物を回りました。 実際に織り機を動かして説明してくださるので、わかりやすいし、わからないことがあれば質問も出来ます。 何故、ここの屋根はギザギザで北に窓が空いているのか? 紀元前から糸を紡いで布を織っていたのには、びっくり😲 ジャガードの織り機が出てきて、その後も変遷する人間の知恵にもびっくり😲 説明の方が上手で、惹き込まれました。 大変勉強になりました! ここにはお土産も売っています! 私は布を8枚買いました。 パネルを作るつもりです! 私は以前他で体験しましたが、ここでも藍染の体験も出来るみたいです。 予約がいるかも知れないので、お聞きになってくださいね! 余談になりますが、ここに来て群馬の女性が何故強いのかわかりました。 織手や女工さんたちが活躍が有ってこその経済基盤が強固になったのですね～ 『かかあ天下』バンザイ＼(^o^)／

視察研修でお邪魔しました。 丁寧にご案内していただき、織りの歴史を深く知ることができました。 見るだけではなく、実際に機に座って織ることができるのが嬉しかったです。 もちろん織りだけではなく工場のノコギリ屋根について、染めについてのことなど色々な事を知ることが出来ました。

First indigo dyeing experience! I made a reservation by phone in advance and the person who told me about it was very thorough in explaining it to me. Thank you very much♪ Everything is fresh and there are hundreds of views. I had an experience. I'm excited even while making it. What will be the result? Feeling. Beautiful indigo. I couldn't help but look at the vase and see it was empty. Living colour. It is described as an indigo flower and looks like hydrangeas are blooming. When dyed and kneaded, it's green color, and when you put it on next time, it's a dark green color like spinach. Masami Nagasawa also came. A handkerchief I made myself! Next time I want to try T-shirts and stoles! When I got home, I washed it with soap and dried it. I think I'll take a look.

Nationally registered tangible cultural property. An interactive textile museum located in a former saw roof factory. There are four buildings with sawn roofs. The building with the tiled roof on the southernmost side is said to be from the Taisho era. One side of the saw roof is vertical. The tiles above the window on the north side are stacked vertically. wonderful. It is said that the number of warehouses represented the prosperity of Kiryu textiles. . Kiryu, once one of the three major silk weavers, now has 80 weavers. And Japanese production is about half that. Japanese culture is passed down in detail. As I was walking around town, I heard a rattling sound.

There was a guide who explained everything in detail! Although it was a little, I was able to experience weaving (*^^*) I learned a lot and had fun!

保管状態が良く展示としての良さもさることながら、参考館の方が付き添って丁寧に説明してくれるので深く知ることができてよかったです。

(Translated by Google) You can understand the history of textiles and the production process well, and the view from the terrace is also wonderful. (Original) 織物の歴史や生産の工程が良くわかります、テラス上からの景色も素敵です

丁寧にレクチャーしていただき、お陰様でとても良いオリジナル藍染めが完成しました👍

I learned a lot because I learned about the history of how textiles are made 👍

It is interesting to tour the factory while it is in operation. You can be guided if you wish.

The indigo dyeing experience was fun. It was a valuable experience.

(Translated by Google) I dyed indigo for the first time. As an experience ◎ I felt that the structure of the building was also old and it was a historical heritage. It would be even better if there were more souvenirs! (Original) 初めて藍染めしました。 体験としては◎ 建物の造りも古めかしくて歴史的な遺産なのだと感じました。お土産ものがもっと充実してると尚よかった！

It was almost closing time when we arrived, so there were no other tourists, so I walked around slowly by myself~ The entrance fee is a bit expensive and cannot be offset. What is worth seeing inside is their weaving history and machinery. It has a full feeling of the Meiji and Taisho eras. The fabrics sold alone in the factory are very beautiful and cheap, but there is no one to greet you. , and I don’t know how to pay... The sales department at the door is small but the items are of decent quality and the prices are just right... it all depends on your budget and preference. I personally regard it as increasing my contribution to Kiryu City.

This place is awesome cause you get to try out the machines. Guide was very kind and knowledgeable of the machines on display.

展示用の桑の葉にいる蚕、糸くくりや機織り機など、繭から生糸になるまでの工程がよく分かった。 また、藍染や草木染の工程なども分かりやすく教えて頂いたのでワクワク感が一杯でした。

(Translated by Google) Thank you for the polite explanation that gave me a valuable experience. Don't miss the saw-roofed building. (Original) 貴重な体験をさせてもらいました、丁寧な説明は有難い。鋸屋根の建物も必見。

Wonderful experience.its very helpful to do know about hard work of making cloths.

(Translated by Google) I have experienced dyeing. He taught me various dyeing methods and I enjoyed the experience. (Original) 染め物体験してきました。いろいろな染め方を教えてくれて、楽しく体験できました

Wonderful experience with indigo!
