This is a themed museum that was established as a place to collect, research, and learn about various things related to demons. In Iwasaki, the birthplace of Oni Kenbu, we collect and display materials related to Oni, such as biographies, picture scrolls, and masks that have been passed down throughout Japan since ancient times. It brings to light the multifaceted existence of demons who have lived in the darkness, and asks us once again what demons are.
