Rikuzentakata City Museum

The Great East Japan Earthquake destroyed this facility and devastated its inventory. With the help of more than 70 museums from all over Japan, some of the items were restored and are now being presented as part of a “living museum”. The shell as a key symbol of the site can be found in the exhibition space in the form of a shell-shaped spiral.
