This museum showcases Toyota's history and their aspirations for the future, starting with an entire section dedicated to the fabric looms and metal work and the other section on automotive technology. Very family-friendly and interactive. Surprised to see so many staff on the floor providing demonstrations and explanations. Many of the machines on display are actually functional and can be triggered with the press of a button.

In the center of the bustling Nagoya Port district, it's impossible to miss the large orange and white ship with the helicopter on top. That's the "Fuji" - an ice-breaking vessel used primarily on Antarctic expeditions and now retired to the status of a floating museum.  A trip onboard the ship is another neat little part of the fun district around the Port. The Fuji was the premier ice breaking vessel of its era, hence being given its prestigious name. It first set sail in July of 1965, and took part in 18 Antarctic exploration trips between 1965 and 1983. A trip aboard the Fuji is a step into a very different kind of life.  The crew that worked on this ship lived in close quarters, and how they went about their daily lives is a big feature of this attraction.  Visitors can wander the maze of the below-deck setup, seeing the bunks, the barber shop, where the crew ate, and where they relaxed.  Rooms are carefully preserved, and are filled with era-appropriate props to give a realistic glimpse at the ship in its "working state."  Many rooms even have mannequins playing checkers or writing letters to their loved ones at home to give a good image of what life was like on board. On the top deck of the ship, guests can get up close and personal with a helicopter (although not go inside), and in front they are welcome to climb into the cockpit to man control of the steerage system. To give an image of the size of the ship based on its specifications: the ship is an even 100 meters long, 22 meters wide, and 11.8 meters deep. When active, its maximum speed was 17 knots, equivalent to about 19.5 miles per hour (or 31.5 kilometers per hour).  It could hold 3 helicopters, 5 boats, and several hundred people at its maximum capacity.

(Translated by Google) We stopped at the Antarctic Research Ship Fuji next to the Port of Nagoya Public Aquarium. Admission is 300 yen. It was impressive when we entered. Very real with the observation boat actually used. ️ By all means, please go once ️ (Original) 名古屋港水族館の隣の南極観測船ふじ　に寄りました。 入場料金300円です。 中に入ったら感動的でした。 実際に使用されていた観測船でとてもリアル‼️ 是非、一度いってみては‼️

I had incredible experience visiting this museum. It showed a thorough and detail history of Toyota Corporation. Very informative, friendly staff and guide. Cheap ticket. Nice interior, large exhibition and showcase various Toyota Technologies now and then and the future. I had fun so much. No regret to visit. Educational for both children and adults. Amazing!

I can absolutely recommend this museum to everyone who want to know more „everything“ about Toyota. There are very good demo versions of production lines from now and then, which makes the museum really visual and interesting. After visiting many museums in Germany from BMW, Mercedes, … this one was by far the best one! It takes around 2 to 3 hours to see the most important things here.

This has to be one of the most amazing museums I’ve ever been to. There were guides who spoke English at many machines to give specialized demos and answer questions, and the exhibits themselves were fascinating and updated! They had full-size, working, industrial machines which had just been developed THIS YEAR! That’s a lot of $ to put into a museum exhibit, and then to have someone operate it for you was SOOO COOL. Anyone interested in science or technology should absolutely visit this museum.

To have the opportunity to trigger a 600 tone press with my own hands? Unbelievable. The level of interaction with the plat and equipment area was amazing. I believe this level of immersion is a phenomenal learning tool for children. The staff were very professional that ranged from 20 somethings who were training to senior veterans who led our tour in English. Would be great to have deeper insight into how the banking system, government and the growth in Japanese culture assisted in the rise of the dynasty. Would like to have more exposure to other Toyota launches and events (online?) as seen with the robot display beside the entrance to the automotive area.

This is an excellent museum, with half devoted to the Toyota textile manufacturing plant, half to their automotive company. Tons of live demonstrations and scheduled (free) tours in English and Japanese. You could spend hours here. But the craziest part is that admission is only ¥500–that hit my credit card statement as $3.36 USD. This is easily a $25 museum in the US.

Decommissioned research ship, helicopter and snow tractors, along with a few interesting films and exhibits including a stomach churning film dramatization of the ship breaking through ice

(Translated by Google) You can see the inside of Japan's second-generation Antarctic research ship Fuji. You can see all the places from the cabin to the engine to the bridge. Realistic dolls are placed on the ship so that you can feel the life of the members at that time. Also, there is a video of how to break the ice, which is a recommended facility for ship lovers. If you want to visit the facilities around Nagoya Port, we recommend the common facility admission ticket! Admission tickets can be purchased not only at each facility but also at convenience stores. (Original) 日本二代目の南極観測船ふじの船内が見られます。船室～エンジン～ブリッジと一通りの場所を見てまわる事が出来ます。船内にはリアルな人形を置いてあり、当時の隊員の生活を感じる事が出来るようになっています。また、砕氷の仕方のビデオが流されていたりと、船好きにはお勧めの施設です。 名古屋港周辺の施設を巡るなら、共通施設入場券がお勧め！入場券は各施設だけでなく、コンビニでも購入することが出来ます。

(Translated by Google) Put on a boat as a historic heritage. The former helicopter hangar area has become an exhibition area where you can learn about Antarctica. On the way, you may be surprised to find a mannequin doll that reproduces the life on board the ship. (Original) 歴史的な遺産としての船に入れる。元々ヘリコプターの格納庫だったエリアが、南極について学べる展示エリアとなっていて、小ぢんまりしているが色々な視点で南極について学べる。 順路途中の、船内生活再現マネキン人形を人と見間違えてびっくりすることあり。

(Translated by Google) Heading to the Port of Nagoya Public Aquarium, there is a big boat at the port! That was Fuji. I was very excited because I had no prior knowledge, but I went to the original destination aquarium ticket office. Then there is a common admission ticket with the Maritime Museum and Fuji. This is the best of Nagoya Port. We purchased and enjoyed each facility, but it was the most impressive of them. As you stroll along the route, the dolls recreate the crew's appearance at the time, and all the equipment and machinery make you feel old-fashioned. Did you go to Antarctica now? He went up to the deck after seeing the exhibits, and the helicopter and the wheelhouse from there were also very satisfied. (Original) 名古屋港水族館へ向うと、港に大きな船が！それが「ふじ」でした。予備知識がなかったので大興奮、でも元々の目的地水族館チケット売り場へ向かいました。すると海洋博物館・ふじとの共通入場券があるじゃないですか。名古屋港の皆さま流石です。購入して各施設を楽しみましたが、その中で一番印象に残りました。 順路に沿って船内を散策すると、人形が当時の乗組員の様子を再現していて、設備や機械類がどれも古々しく時代を感じさせくれます。これで南極まで行ったのか〜！ 展示物を見て甲板に上がるとヘリコプター、そこから操舵室も上がれ大満足でした。

(Translated by Google) It has been 20 years since I started. It hasn't changed much, but it's worth it. I wish I had the latest exhibits. However, I did not know that there was anything other than Showa base in Antarctica. (Original) 二十数年振りに入りました。 大きく変わっていませんでしたが、入る価値は、あります。 最新の展示物もあればいいのに。 ただ、南極に昭和基地以外があるのは、知らなかった。

It's a great place to visit if you are interested to know the history of the Toyota company. The museum has 2 pavilions. 1st one shows the history of the Fabric industry and then the 2nd one shows the evolution of the automobile industry. Toyota cars from very early 1950s are displayed here. The museum closes at 5 pm. I visited here on a Saturday. It was not crowded.

It’s a good way to learn the history and culture of Toyota. I recommended downloading the app and follow the numbers of color lines on the floor. Also bring your headset for the audio for foreigners that doesn’t understand Japanese. Staffs are very friendly and demonstrates the process of cotton and how it evolved to the current technologies.

Entry fee is 500¥ per adult. Expect the full exhibition to take 2 hours, as there is a lot to see. If you’re interested in Toyota as a company and want to know its origins, this is definitely a place for you. Car enthusiasts, there are a few great cars in here, however there is another museum (Toyota Automobile) that could cater for your desires more.

I was looking for a less crowded place to explore in Nagoya, and that's when I stumbled upon this amazing spot. The admission fee of 500 yen wasn't too expensive, and the experience inside was absolutely incredible. The place showcases the fascinating origins of Toyota, which began with textile machinery. As a result, there are numerous exhibits featuring various machines, and they even offer demonstrations. The staff members were extremely friendly and helpful. However, what really left a lasting impression was the automobile section. They had a remarkable display featuring cars from different generations, accompanied by explanations about the manufacturing process. I was thrilled to discover that they provided explanations in English, and the pamphlets were available in multiple languages as well. The robot playing the violin was the most impressive thing for me.

Great museum which outlines Mr. Toyoda and his journey starting from textiles and ending with cars. Awesome bit of history and is actually located at the site of his childhood home, which is cool. From memory it was 500¥ entry for an adult. No need to book. Not too many cars on display, however every one in there is immaculate. You can also get a Toyota keychain made in front of you for free once entered. There's also a gift shop to walk through with some unique souvenirs.

What a fantastic museum - loads of history of the founding of Toyota, how to went from manufacturing looms to the best cars in the world today. Enjoy the showroom of the Toyota line up of cars including the newest hydrogen cell Mirai line up. End your day with a satisfying lunch at the museum cafe which was surprisingly decent.

This was a really good self guided tour. The exhibits were impeccable and lots of actual demonstrations, including a working 600 tonne press thats about 2 stories high. The textile machines operating were a big suprise and gave me a new understanding of something I knew nothing about. Easy walk from the station as well. Fun 2 hours ... and they had benches for the people with sore feet! This country makes you walk...haha. Got a good prize from the Gachapon machine outside the gift shop! Which one is the real one?

Very nice museum showing history and growth of Toyota company and their struggle during tough times. The elaboration of weaving machines is great and opens another chapter in the mind about Toyota. Their family story is full of innovation and overcoming challenges… really inspiring. Note: if you love cars and machines then please reach early to the museum, it is at walking station from Sako station and it is where the Toyota story begins.

Great museum to learn about the history of the Toyota Corp and industries, the founder, his mission, his drive, and his endurance through challenges and lead his company forward to dominate the automobiles industry in the world. You can learn that Toyota started from the cotton and texture industries which still provide advanced technology fabrics to its automobiles vehicles. You can also see the machines and robots used to manufacture fabrics and build automobiles. They also showcased its commitment to advanced technology to be applied to its businesses.

Fantastic museum for Toyota fans and any Automobile fans. We learnt a lot about Toyota history and there were a lot of interesting things to see. Staff were fantastic and explained a lot of equipment in the exhibition. There was an interactive play area for children, booking is required and each booking is only for 30minutes.

This place was amazing! Best part of the port in my opinion. They do a great job of showing the history of the ship and what purpose it served. Highly recommended for anyone remotely interested in ships or the coast guard

This was such a nice place to visit. The shop is kept very well. Everything is well cared for and the displays are great. Alot of it is in Japanese but some displays have English. They have guides that can help you if it is needed. It offers great views of the area. The helicopter is cool. You can buy a ticket just for this ship or a combo ticket for the ship, observation tower, and aquarium for a good price.

Worth checking out for the surreal experience; it's like entering a different world of historical technology and living conditions. While it is a short gander of a trip, the combined aquarium-Fuji ticket is recommended. The kids loved it!

(Translated by Google) 2020/8/15 You can see the inside of the real Fuji with Taro & Jiro. However, since it is an old ship, the equipment feels quite old. If you think about going to Antarctica with such equipment, you can see how difficult it is for the members. (Original) 2020/8/15 タロジロも乗った本物のふじの中が見られます。 ただ、昔の船なので設備はかなり古さを感じます。こんな設備で南極まで行ってかと思うと隊員の大変さがわかります。

(Translated by Google) For now, the ship museum is very satisfying wherever I go. Personally, I am deeply moved by remembering a place further than the Universe in the anime. (Original) 船の博物館は今の所、何処に行っても大満足。 個人的にはアニメの宇〇より遠い場所を思い出して、とても感慨深い。

(Translated by Google) The price seems to change depending on where you look. If you just look at the observation boat at one place, it costs 300 yen. I measured the heat at the entrance. Even on Sunday, there were few people and I could see it slowly. I am really impressed with the ship that was going to Antarctica! The display is also spectacular and the ship is larger than I expected. The doll was real and it was fun. (Original) どこを拝観するかで料金が変わる様です。1ヵ所、観測船を見るだけだと300円。入り口で熱を計り入りました。日曜日でも人は少なく、ゆっくり見れました。実際に南極に行っていた船とは感動です！展示も見応えが有るし思った以上に船内が広くて"以前、潜水艦に入った事があるので"ビックリしました。お人形がリアルだし楽しかったです。

(Translated by Google) You can actually see the inside of the Antarctic research ship. The interior is displayed with dolls and equipment that might have been used, so it is very realistic! There is also a lot of relevant information about Antarctica, as well as models of successive observation vessels. (Original) 南極観測船の内部を実際に見学できます。内部は人形や実際に使われていたであろう備品などと 一緒に展示されており臨場感たっぷりです！ 南極に関する関連情報もたくさんあり、歴代の観測船の模型なども展示されています。

(Translated by Google) You can taste Fuji's atmosphere and learn about the structure of the room and the mechanism of power. There is a wax figure for reproduction at the time, but since it is as realistic as the real thing, at first it will be scared. The Antarctic Museum in Fuji is also being renewed and you can enjoy watching it. (Original) ふじの雰囲気を味わうことができ、部屋の構造や動力の仕組みなどが分かり勉強になります。 当時の再現のために蝋人形がありますが本物そっくりなぐらいリアルなため、初めはギョッとします。 またふじの中にある南極の博物館リニューアルしており見て楽しむことができます。

Fantastic museum for all ages! This museum will appeal to a variety of people with a variety of interests- so it is a great activity for a group or family. You could easily spend 2+ hours here. Most of the exhibits are interactive. There is also a large number of staff working in the museum who will demonstrate many of the machines and explain how they work. The staff on the floor of the museum all spoke excellent English. I’d recommend bringing your headphones for your phone. There is a guided tour you can access via a QR code in the museum that will walk you through the exhibits in English. You can also rent a head set for ¥200 according to the sign but there was no obvious place to rent them and we didn’t ask. Due to COVID they are not offering tours of the Toyota factory where they build cars- but this museum has ample enough demonstrations of building cars and the evolution of the technology that you won’t miss the factory tour. Can’t say enough great things about this museum. We’ve been to other similar factory/industrial tours in Japan and this was by far the most English friendly.

What an AWESOME experience I had here. There’s a reason why Toyotas are the best cars to own, and a lot of that is reflected is this museum. They’ve got a great gift shop with lots of TRD gear, and a coffee/deli shop to get some snacks. 5 stars all around!

Had an incredible time visiting Toyota's Commemorative Musuem of Industry and Technology. You can easily lose a half a day learning about Toyota's growth from a manufacturer of automatic looms to the powerhouse automobile manufacturer they are known for today. The Museum has a section for the evolution of its looming machines, Kiichiro Toyoda, the forging of parts for Toyota's vehicles, demos of the assembly line, and some key cars produced by Toyota. The Museum has scheduled demonstrations, staff led demonstrations, and demos that can be started with a simple push of a button. Towards the end, you get to "produce" your own Toyota Model AA as well. All in all it is a great afternoon well spent.

Awesome museum if you are in Nagoya must go. It’s huge and very interesting. There’s two parts to the museum: textiles and cars. Very Good to have English explanation panels as well!

I had no idea what to expect before I visited this museum. It covers the complete history of the Toyota corporation from the very beginning when it started out as a textile manufacturer. There are numerous working displays from both the textile portion of the company all the way up to present day automobile manufacturing. Some of the working displays are quite impressive including the automated machinery for textile manufacturing. I had only planned to spend 90 minutes here but I ended up staying for 2.5 hours because the exhibits were so extensive and interesting. Toyota has a very long history and this museum covers all of it very well.

A must-go for any engineering enthusiast. Look at the history of Toyota starting from its roots in fabric manufacturing, with live demonstrations of cotton weaving and improvements in machinery. The staff are able to converse and explain the exhibits in English as well. The history of Toyota as well as its founder is extremely interesting. For those who are not interested in history, looking at the familiar car models and advance modern manufacturing techniques can also be intriguing. There is something to do for all age groups here.

It’s a massive museum including two parts of Toyota, textile machines and automobiles. There are guides everywhere in the museum to show case machines and introduce each exhibition, and most of them can speak some English which is very helpful. The highlight to me is to see the legendary LFA. Overall very informative and great tour if you are into Toyota automobiles.

We absolutely loved this museum, it has the cars, the robotics, the machines, working displays, videos, reading posts, the historical time frame, a easy to follow route and beautiful friendly helpful staff everywhere. We then went to the fabric cotton museum - next door and enjoyed the same experience. I highly recommend you go!!

A very impressive visitor center. The car factory started as a yarn and weaving factory. The museum describes the development of the automobile industry in general. Don't miss there is also a surprise at one of the stations 🚗

Never knew Toyota was a textiles business before making cars. Overall very informative and interesting. Very English friendly, not very busy and inexpensive. Bit out the way but worth the visit!

Good museum. It is a good learning journey for children. There is English guided tour too, check with information counter assistant who is very friendly and helpful. Remember to bring a booklet for collection of stamps too or there is leaflet for you to stamp and bring home. The techno park required booking. We have spent the whole day and wishing that we would have another hour.

A must visit in Nagoya if you're even slightly interested in Toyota, automobiles, fabrics or manufacturing. Large, informative, interactive exhibits covering the history of Toyota, weaving and automobile technology in Japan. The children's exhibits (about 10% of the museum) are also well done.

Truly an incredible museum. Lots of information, lots of hands on experiences, lots of beautiful things to look at. Something for everybody. I wasn't expecting that much emphasis on the textile history of Toyota, but it was so detailed, not just on Toyota but on the entire textile industry from all times. Every step in the development of textile manufacturing is explained thoroughly with videos, lovely guides who are fluent in English and by interactive demonstrations. The automobile area started with the first handcrafted car in a small workshop and continued with a mini ultra modern factory with huge electric presses, robots and assembly lines, along with beautifully preserved cars from all times. Really makes you appreciate the hard labor that was made by the employees and engineers over the years, and the huge progress they have made with what little they had. The violin playing robot is also a nice and cute (although a bit out of tune haha). Overall I think it's one of the best attractions in the area, along with the railway park and Legoland probably, and above all of them captures the industrial essence of Japan. Admission fee is 500 yen currently, which is very cheap compared to the amount and quality of content (400 for subway pass holders BTW).

Interesting and Educational for Adults or Kids Convenient location with easy access by Subway, then takes around 10 minutes walk It is a real ship, you can have chance touring by yourself, really eyes breaking Worth a visit during your stay in Nagoya

Sitting in the Port of Nagoya’s Garden Wharf, opposite the Nagoya Aquarium, is a large, bright orange and white ship with a large Sikorsky Sea King helicopter riding piggy back. This is the Japanese Antarctic survey ship, Fuji, a retired ice breaker that plied the South Pole for 18 years starting it’s first journey in 1965. 100 meters long, 11 meters wide and 22 meters high with a displacement of 5,250 tons, the diesel electric powered Fuji boasted a speed of 17 knots, (about 35 kilometers an hour) and carried a 245 capacity full crew and research team. The Fuji could break through ice as thick as 80 Centimeters. After many successful missions, Fuji was finally retired, and the fate of the icebreaker was in doubt. In 1985, the Fuji was towed into Nagoya Port for one last time before being stripped down, and put on display as a floating maritime museum centering on Japan’s extensive Antarctic research missions of the 60’s and 70’s. Aboard the ship, visitors can walk around and throughout the three levels of the ship, including the Bridge and research areas. See the helicopter that helped researchers get far into the Arctic interior and safely back on board. Wander through the galley and kitchens and accommodation areas where deckhands, crew and researchers lived and worked side by side in close proximity during the long and arduous missions, and down into the ship’s bowls to view the engines and equipment. Well produced displays and sets help you imagine the difficult conditions experienced by all who served on her, as well as the important research work undertaken on the lengthy voyages. On the dock in front of the ship is the Fuji Hiroba, a small park featuring a tribute statue to the hero sled dogs Taro and Jiro who were left behind on a mid 50’s mission, only to be found alive a year later having survived alone in the bleak and freezing conditions. There is the Fuji’s propeller and drive shaft, an anchor and even one of the futuristic looking track driven snow vehicles used by the researchers. This particular unit saw service over a 20 year span in the South Polar region. Children will love the opportunity to explore the ship, while adults will appreciate the displays and the difficult conditions under which the vessel operated. Tie the trip in with a visit to the Aquarium, port building and lookout, museum and other top class attractions at the Port of Nagoya for an enjoyable and educational day out!

Great place to visit and informative.

Exhibited in the way that you can see everyday life of the crew of the expedition ship is interesting to me.

Good Place to go... Ticket Set will be recommend!!!

(Translated by Google) You can go around here, the observatory, and the museum for about 720 yen as a set. It should be 300 yen only here. There is a discount with a one-day subway ticket. The contents are substantial for the price. In addition, the mannequins and displays are Showa-style, creating an irresistible taste for Showa lovers. In the first place, it is not a ship for exhibition but a ship for voyage, so the passage is not wide and it is necessary to get on and off the stairs. It can be difficult to look around in a stroller or wheelchair. The person in charge is very impressed with the kindness. It was interesting because the rank of the room was decided according to the rank, but it was a pity that I could not see the captain's room, which was probably the highest luxury.

Admission is as low as 300 yen. 700 yen for a common ticket for the three facilities, the Maritime Museum and the Observatory. I wonder if it was good without going to the museum. For the time being, I purchased a ticket common to all three facilities. There was also an aquarium, but until I came to Nagoya I did not go to the aquarium. Statue of Taro Jiro It is a white birch dog who accompanied the first Antarctic observation team "Soya" in 1956. Looking at the Antarctic Story 1983 (1983), At that time, I didn't know that was a true story. The second-generation Antarctic observation team "Fuji" It is the first full-fledged polar icebreaker in Japan.

A weekend well spent. Toyota textile and automotive museum. They have detailed demonstrations both in Japanese and English. But they may not be able to answer your questions in English. Recommended to anyone interested in engineering.

I see the history of Toyota. and the way operate this museum is full of love and I feel workers also love this place. nagoya's with toyota hospitality is great!

Awesome museum tour today! 12/24/2021 The staff were super helpful All of them They were bilingual and their English descriptions were great The English tour app was hardly used but also very good Thank you for making it a great experience for the family Wifi only works in the textile area is my only issue found!

Fun place to walk through. Learned a lot about the roots of Toyota. The staff was very friendly. Pro tip. Bypass the little Cafe near the entrance of the museum and walk toward the back and hit the restaurant for a very good and affordable meal. Got the Pasta Bolognese and it was very good!!!

A place to learn some interesting history of machineries and how fabrics, textiles manufacturing came to become easy today. Also some vintage and fresh automobiles history or I’ll rather call it trend, because everything vintage is always alive through centuries.

It was an educational visit for me. They have preserved the detailed history of Toyota corporation. You will come to know the step by step history of how they developed themselves from a thread making company to a car giant over the decades. You will also see some retro cars that are out of production.

This museum is fantastic! Interactive and visual, there is a lot to see and learn. Wear good shoes! You'll be standing or walking a lot. If you join the demonstrations by staff, there is no English. The staff regularly demonstrates some of the various machines, so it's pretty cool, but because they do a lot of talking about the machine, it might get tiring; luckily you can come and go as you please. There are many displays that you can press the button to make it operate. English signage throughout! There is definitely enough interaction to keep anyone entertained, even those not interested in cars. Toyota started with cotton production, then eventually got into car manufacturing; so you'll see many displays on the history of cotton refining in addition to cars. It's pretty cool to see the different cotton weaving machines, then the robotic arms that assemble cars. During WWII, Toyota exclusively manufactured trucks; unlike the BMW Museum in Munich (for example), there is little to no information on Toyota's role in the war effort (a bit disappointing). The museum ends with a huge showroom of various Toyota models throughout the years.

Toyota history almost like a modern industrial history of Japan, there you can see the how a craftsman‘s spirit made the great achievement.

It's history of Toyota how from manufacturing textiles they entered the automobile industry and became number 1 in world. A place worth visiting. Entry fee is ¥500 and free parking. Have a nice cafe and restaurant for delicious 😋 food.

One of my favourite museum in Japan. Really nice to figure out the long history of Toyota, from making textile to the largest car company in the world.

Visiting Toyota is a must if you are in Nagoya. It’s fascinating to learn that “toyoda” started as a textile company and then started automobiles afterwards. They have 2 demo: one is history of textiles and the other is automobile. We are so amazed that they had real person to demonstrate how a simple cotton to a thread then weaving to a fabric. Toyota auto from past and present to the future. It’s worth to visit.

Super awesome museum. It’s huge and very interesting. Staff are amazing. I didn’t even understand them but I followed them through the museum and you could tell they were passionate about the spot. There’s two parts to the museum: textiles and cars. The company actually out as a textiles business. There are English explanation panels as well!

Very interesting museum! I never thought the museum would offer so much information from the Toyota history back in the days, and never would know what kind of developments they would have done in the past. Toyota is still a car brand for the majority of the people, but is more than that! Not only the very well maintained equipment, but also the interactive way of presenting the machinery to the people is very well done. Working machines which are rotating, moving and making noises. This is what people like to see and keep them awake. But some push buttons at some machines and see what's happening. I worked in the automotive industry so I knew how most of the equipment, but regardless it was very interesting to see. At the end of the tour you can enjoy some lunch and coffee in the in-house cafe or bring your memories home in the shape of souvenirs. You can spend 2 to 3 hours in here.

You'll need a good day here. One of the best places in Nagoya or even Japan. Please do not miss it if you have an interest in machines, cars or history.

"Let machines do what humans do." From textiles to automation and automobiles. Such a fascinating museum to appreciate how technology has come so far for the largest automobile maker in the world right now. Highly recommended!

Very cool! From the production and making of fabric of sheets to the revolution of cars including hydrogen, gas, and electric vehicles... Do it miss out on the manufacturing room where car parts are heated and pressed! For technical nerds this is dope! And for those who like history more, there is enough history written on the walls. Many workers there also showcase how the machines work! Do not miss out on the showcases and explanations!

We happened to come to Nagoya to meet a friend and she decided to go to the Toyota Museum. It was pretty cool and there always seem to be groups. Saw many tourists here as well. Guided tour in english was cool so check out times etc. Was very informative including why it's called Toyota and not the founders name Toyoda. Won't spoil it for you. Kids and adults both get to do a key chain thingy at the end which was cool just to do it.

Wonderful museum that shows the history and evolution of Toyota from Textile looms to Industrial automation to Automobile. They have a great range of working exhibits and you can operate some of the machinery yourself and see the machinery in action. They have some live demo shows at regular intervals throughout the day and the staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. Ticket is very reasonable at 500 yen and the parking is free as well. Overall very good experience and worth the visit.

From vintage classics to futuristic prototypes, it showcases Toyota's remarkable evolution. The interactive exhibits and knowledgeable staff enhance the experience. While some signage is in Japanese, it's a must-visit for car enthusiasts and history buffs alike

It was a well maintained place as you would expect from Toyota. The textile industry section was excellent and the story from textile machinery to automotive manufacturing is well documented. Lack of more up to date car manufacturing technologies on display was a little bit disappointing. But still I can recommend visiting the museum to anyone interested in the car industry.

It was a great museum about the history of Toyota. It is really well maintained and they talk about the history of Toyota from Cotton processing to Car Manufacturing. They have machinery from across the eras and add great snippets of history. Would definitely go again.

I really love this place and interesting history of Toyota company from beginning to now. You can see the first car of Toyota and industrial machines and more in this museum. If you are in Nagoya and wanna visit somewhere here is one of the best spot

Didn't expect much, but was very pleasantly surprised. It gives you the story of how Toyota started on textiles and transitioned into cars. Also has the story of the Toyota family and everyone who contributed to its success. Overall a fun two hours.

I loved the place very much got the history from starting till the last day. Also not only about cars but also, textiles and manufacturing equipments for them. Showcasing the timeline from start to end for both textiles and car industry and how successful they really are. One more important thing, they do english tours once a day so make sure not to miss this. And finally buy a souvenir from their shop.

It's originally a spinning and fabric producer. Today it's one of the largest car mfg and globally recognised automotive brands. It's a worthwhile educational visit.

As a car guy, in Japan to compete at Rally Japan, it was natural to visit both the Toyota Automotive museum as well as the Toyota museum of Technology. I was worried that the museum of technology would be boring for my wife and 9 year old would be bored. Boy, was I wrong! They had a blast! It might be the highlight of our trip to Japan. You can push the button to start the manufacturing machines in operation. Huge presses and hammer forges. Assembly robots putting together a car and simulating welding it together. Plus, Toyoda made looms before they made cars so there is a huge background on their loom history. Included are demos of different types of looms old and new. Amazing!

Much better and much bigger than I anticipated! We spent several more hours than anticipated. I was very interested in some of the manufacturing processes they showed. Many of the machines and robots are working and can be turned on.
