Tokiwa Kimon Samurai Museum

A small but captivating museum about samurai on the grounds of Odawara Castle.

See real samurai weapons, armor, and swords, in addition to samurai armor up close. It all comes to life through powerful projection mapping and visual storytelling. Once you have walked around the exhibition on the top floor, head downstairs for the gift shop. Here, you can rent a samurai costume and take photos in the mini studio (at an additional cost).

Entry to the museum is ¥160 for adults and ¥40 for elementary and junior-high school students. There is the option to get a combined ticket for both Odawara Castle and the Samurai Museum. This costs ¥610 for adults and ¥220 for elementary and junior-high school students.
