Kikkawa Historical Museum (吉川史料館, Kikkawa Shiryōkan) is a private museum of artefacts handed down by the Kikkawa clan, daimyō of Iwakuni Domain, in Iwakuni, Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan. Located between Kintai-kyō bridge and Iwakuni Castle and opened by the Kikkawa Hōkōkai Society (吉川報效会) in 1995,[1] the museum's collection totals some seven thousand items, including materials from the Heian and Kamakura periods, a painting attributed to Sesshū, and one National Treasure.[2][3] There are four changing displays each year.[4] Other materials once owned by the Kikkawa clan are on display at Iwakuni Chōkokan.[5]
