  Let us introduce you to the Toyota Commemorative Museum of Industry and Technology.
  They display the history of Toyota Motors. 
  Did you know that Toyota was originally a company that manufactured machines?
  In 1926, Toyota Sakichi founded the company in Nagoya, and it was a company that had a reputation in manufacturing machines for textiles, and was called Toyota's  'Magic Loom'.

  For that reason, this museum exhibits the weaving machines that people actually used in those days.

• 

  This display is a reproduction of the automobile manufacturing site at that time.
  The museum is built where the textile factory was and been changed into a modern industrial heritage in Japan, contributing to Japan's industrial modernization.
