Betsukai Town Historical Museum
This museum introduces the history and nature of Betsukai Town. Its ancillary facility, Kaga Family Archives, features documents handed down in the Kaga family that detail what the Nemuro region was like in the final days of shogunate rule. The Toyohara Branch Museum displays materials that provide insight into the history of dairy farming, a key industry of the town, including materials regarding the Konsen Pilot Farm (which was financially supported by the World Bank in the 1950s).
