The Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum documents the atomic bombing of Hiroshima on 6 August 1945 and its aftermath. Opened in 1955 in the Peace Memorial Park, its main building is by Kenzō Tange; the exhibits show belongings of the dead, photographs, survivors' testimonies and the effects of heat, blast and radiation.
The Hiroshima Museum of Art was opened in 1978 by the Hiroshima Bank in Chūō Park, near the castle. Its collection centres on French painting from Romanticism to the School of Paris, with works by Monet, Renoir, Van Gogh and Picasso, alongside Japanese Western-style painting; the galleries ring a domed central hall.
