The Yushukan summarizes Japan's military history and displays related items starting with the Meiji Restoration, the Satsuma Rebellion, and the founding of the Yasukuni Jinja in the 1860s. The museum also has a few exhibits related to the Samurai spirit and Japan's military traditions prior to the 1860s. After the addition of a new building and a complete renovation in 2002, the two-floor museum now has two large exhibition halls, twenty exhibition galleries, two theaters, and two special exhibition galleries. |
