What makes this place special?
At a Glance
The Shiki Museum in Matsuyama, Ehime, is devoted to the haiku poet Masaoka Shiki, who was born and raised in the city. Formally the Matsuyama City Shiki Memorial Museum, it opened in 1981 in the Dōgo district. Shiki, who lived from 1867 to 1902, is widely regarded as the most important figure in the modernization of haiku and tanka.
The building runs from the basement to the fourth floor. The second-floor gallery covers the history of Dōgo and Matsuyama and Shiki's time, while the third-floor gallery is themed on the world Shiki aimed for. The permanent exhibitions were renewed in 2017 and again in 2024. The museum is a short walk from Dōgo Onsen, next to the park built on the ruins of Yuzuki Castle.
