During the Edo Period (1600-1868), Nagoya served as the seat of the Owari, one of the three major branches of the ruling Tokugawa family.
The Tokugawa Art Museum preserves and exhibits the belongings of the Owari, who in terms of wealth were surpassed by only four of the nearly 200 feudal domains of the Edo Period. The exhibits include samurai armor, swords, tea utensils, noh masks and costumes, poems, scrolls and maps.
Tokugawaen, a Japanese landscape garden, is located next to the museum. The garden used to be part of a retirement residence of the local lords, but was destroyed during the war. From 2001 the garden was reconstructed as a traditional Japanese landscape garden and reopened to the public in 2004.
