大谷資料館
Underground quarry turned cathedral-like museum, 30m deep with year-round 8-degree chambers.
Carved from a decommissioned underground stone quarry, this cavernous museum extends 30 meters below ground in a space spanning 20,000 square meters. The cathedral-like chambers maintain a constant 8 degrees Celsius year-round and have served as film sets, concert halls, and art exhibition spaces. Dramatic lighting reveals the geometric precision of century-old hand-cut walls of Oya tuff stone.
