What is Manabikan?
Yamagata Manabikan was converted from the Yamagata City Daiichi Elementary School, established in 1927. The building is now registered as a tangible national cultural property of Japan. Utilized as a facility to draw activities to the city center since 2010, it showcases information about attractive places, events, and products of Yamagata.
