Nagoya-City Toyota Commemorative Museum of Industry and Technology
Museum of industrial powerhouse Toyota from its Meiji-period beginnings
Japan’s manufacturing industry has long been the envy of other nations. One of the greatest success stories would have to be that of the Toyota Group, which began as a textiles manufacturer in 1911 at the former Toyota Boshoku Headquarters Plant—the museum's currently location—before moving on to become the automobile manufacturing behemoth of today. This cultural epicenter for global giant Toyota, Toyota Commemorative Museum of Industry and Technology (formerly the Toyota Techno Commemorative Museum of Industry and Technology), offers a walk through the history and technology of the company while maintaining the plant's precious and historic architecture.
