Mōri Museum (毛利博物館 Mōri Hakubutsukan?) opened in Hōfu, Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan, in 1966. It occupies part of the Former Mōri Clan Main Residence, dating from the Meiji and Taishō periods, of which twelve component structures have been jointly designated an Important Cultural Property and the gardens a Place of Scenic Beauty. The collection of some twenty thousand objects includes four National Treasures, nine Important Cultural Properties, and nine Prefectural Cultural Properties.
The four National Treasures are Heian-period scrolls from Records of the Grand Historian and Kokin Wakashū, a Kamakura-period sword, and Sesshū's Long Landscape Scroll.
