Another major attraction in Matsumae is this sumo museum dedicated to the late, local sumo legends Yokozuna Chiyonoyama (1926–1977) and Yokozuna Chiyonofuji (1955–2016) who both were from Fukushima, Matsumae. Most of their sumo treasures are displayed here including their mawashi ceremonial aprons, numerous trophies, and topknot. Many people still remember megapopular and muscular Chiyonofuji. Must-see for sumo fans.
