    The Yamato Museum (大和ミュージアム, Yamato Museum) is the nickname of the Kure Maritime Museum (呉市海事歴史科学館, Kure-shi Kaiji Rekishi Kagakukan). It is nicknamed the Yamato Museum due to the display in the lobby of a 1/10 scale model of the battleship Yamato,[1] the flagship of the Japanese Combined Fleet in World War II. It was sunk south of the Japanese island of Kyushu in 1945. The museum is located where the battleship was completed. The museum contains a lot of things, just to name a few:

    1/10 scale of the Yamato

    History of Kure – as the shipbuilding, port city and the Kure Naval District

    Large objects exhibition room - containing a Mitsubishi A6M Zero model 62, a Kaiten human torpedo and a Kairyū-class submarine

    1:1 replica of one of the battleship Kongō's boilers.
