Tobacco & Salt Museum

5 February 2019

Today Benedict Goes en Don Duco made a visit to the famous Tobacco & Salt Museum in Tokyo. This museum in Japan is one of the largest museums on this theme in the world, so a visit was on our bucket list for a long time. Since 2015 the museum has got a brand new premises just next to the research institute of the tobacco firm that pays for the museum. We talked with senior curator Reiko Sakaki about cooperation in digitizing the collections. Afterwards we made a tour through the spacious museum exhibition. A wonderful and learning experience.
