About this event

Commemorating the 15th anniversary of the opening of Morioka History and Culture Museum, the special exhibition 'Proof of Family: Tracing the Nanbu Clan Through Family Crests' focuses on kamon (family crests), the symbols of Japanese households, with particular attention to the family crest of the Nanbu clan. Centering on weapons, armor attire, and furnishings adorned with the Nanbu family crest, as well as historical documents describing family crests, this exhibition delves deeply into how the Nanbu clan utilized their family crests. It is a valuable opportunity to enjoy a world filled with family crests associated with the Nanbu clan.
