The Sano Art Museum features a range of different art pieces, including paintings, sculptures, and Noh masks to name a few. One of the most notable items in the museum collection is a Japanese sword called “Naginata”, which has been designated as a National Treasure.

A special event at the museum looks into a collection of around 60 Japanese swords, including the Naginata which dates back to the Kamakura Period (13th Century).
