Kataraiza Ohara Main Residence (Former Ohara Family Residence)

Ohara Museum of Art, the house where Magosaburo Ohara, the founder of Kurashiki Silk Textile (currently Kuraray Co., Ltd.), and generations of the Ohara family lived. National important cultural property. The view inside the mansion is unimaginable from the outside. You can enjoy ``Kurashiki within Kurashiki'' in a calm atmosphere with a group of warehouses lined with stone pavements and a tranquil Japanese garden. The exhibition contents are also extensive. In addition to the Ohara family's collection and works of art, we will introduce the history of eight generations of the Ohara family through creative exhibits such as ``Furisogusu Kotoba'' and ``Cube Tree.'' There is also a book cafe surrounded by the Ohara family's collection of books.
