Kanagawa Prefectural Kanazawa-Bunko Museum

Kanagawa Prefectural Kanazawa-Bunko Museum

The Kanazawa Bunko was a samurai library built by Hojo Sanetoki, a member of the Hojo clan (Kanazawa Hojo) in the middle of the Kamakura period (1185-1333). The collection covers a wide range of subjects, including politics, literature, and history, and the policy of collecting books was continued by three successive generations of the Hojo family: Akitoki, Sadaaki, and Sadamasa, further enriching the collection. The Kanazawa-Hojo clan shared the same fate with the fall of the Kamakura shogunate, and the collection was administered by the adjacent family temple, Shomyoji Temple, which has continued to manage it into the modern era. The present Kanazawa Bunko was restored as a Kanagawa Prefecture facility in 1930, and since 1990, it has been a museum of history. The Prefectural Kanazawa Bunko is dedicated to preserving for future generations the valuable cultural assets that have handed down the legacy of the Kamakura period, exhibiting the results of its research and studies, and providing public access through lectures and other programs.
