Yamato Hall, next to the one-tenth scale model of the battleship Yamato, accomodates about 300 people. It is available for a greater capacity by putting in movable chairs and an elevated stage. Mainly, this space is used for our special exhibitions, but it can be used for lectures, etc.
Every Saturday and Sunday, science shows and handicraft classes are held in this room.
The seminar and meeting room accomodates about 80 people. This single room can be made into two with a large divider.
This is a space for exhibiting photos and other images.
Here, you can read books about ships and history, and learn about aspects of the museum's collection that are not normally on display, by using our computer database.
Visitors get an excellent panorama of Kure Port from the Observation Terrace on the 4th floor. From here, yon can see the dock which was where the Yamato was built, plus huge tankers and several passing vessels. It is possible to see, from time to time, a submarine under the steam.
