Kobe City Museum (神戸市立博物館) opened in Kobe, Japan in 1982, and combines two previous collections, the Municipal Archaeological Art Museum and Municipal Namban Art Museum. The museum is housed in a neoclassical building of 1935, the former Kobe branch of the Bank of Tokyo. The collection of nearly thirty-nine thousand items comprises archaeological artefacts, works of art, old maps, and historical documents and artefacts relating to Kobe. It includes an important collection of Namban art, as well as a set of dōtaku and other items of the Yayoi period from excavations at Sakuragaoka that have been designated a National Treasure.[1][2]
