Japanese Baseball Hall of Fame

The Japanese Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum first opened in 1959 next door to Korakuen Stadium[?] in Tokyo, Japan. In 1988, the museum moved to a new site within the Tokyo Dome[?].

The Hall of Fame and Museum was created as a means to contribute to the development of baseball in Japan through dedication of baseball greats--players, executives, and umpires-- as Hall of Famers. In addition, the facility houses many memorable baseball materials including various kinds of baseball literature.
