History
edit
The first museum director, Hatakeyama Issē (28 December 1881 - 17 November 1971）was the founder of Ebara Corporation. In 1937, Hatakeyama purchased the landlot once Count Terashima Munenori resided, and relocated and rebuilt an old guest house from Hannyaji in Nara which he named "Hannyaen", where a house warming tea ceremony was held in 1943.[1] As Hatakeyama practiced Hōshō school noh since he was young, he acquired a private noh theater and reassembled on the property. There are noh costumes among the collection.
Hatakeyama's collection was moved to a museum he built in 1964 next to his residence as he planned to preserve it for many years and hold exhibitions for the public as well as support researchers.[1]
There is a tea house called Shō-an in the museum building, and those in the garden are for rent; Sara-an, Sui-an, Meigetsuken, Shin zashiki, Jōrakutei and Bishamondō. Once a year, a guided tour is held to visit those tea houses.[4]
