Showcasing machinery and other equipment used in Japan's textile industry, this museum interestingly enough is based on the Toyota family's spinning and weaving enterprise, before they got into the business of making (Toyota) cars. The founder of the family enterprise, Sakichi Toyoda is credited with inventing the first automatic loom. The site of the museum can truly be said to be the birthplace of the Toyota motorcar. The items on display are of historical interest but also include full working models that can be demonstrated to visitors. On hand, too, are a video library, a shop and a restaurant.
