The Kiku-Masamune Sake Brewery Museum, rebuilt after the 1995 Hanshin Earthquake, recreates the appearance and atmosphere of an Edo-period brewery using original woodwork and traditional tools. Visitors can explore the brewing process through large displays, watch craftsmen at work, and sample various sakes in the tasting area.
