The botanist KOMAKI Sei (1908-2002) became interested in botany when he moved to Sakhalin as an elementary school teacher in 1939 and attended the plant colleting tour organized by the botanist SUGAWARA Shigezo. In 1952, KOMAKI relocated to Nanao City, Ishikawa Prefecture and wrote and edited “Field Guide: Plants in Noto” and “Kaga and Noto Botanical Guide”. He left a number of botanical samples and their detailed sketches.

The rich nature of Noto, where the sea and mountains meet, and the lives of the people who have lived there in harmony with nature were recognized as a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System in 2011.
The museum opened in October 2018, marking 1,300 years since the establishment of Noto Province in 718. It promotes the charm of the Noto Peninsula and introduces the nature, history, and culture of Nanao, which was once the center of Noto Province.
In addition to hands-on exhibits, quiz-style explanations and touch panel searching, there is a Satoyama Satoumi theater where visitors can enjoy beautiful seasonal images and dynamic festival videos of Noto and Nanao on two large screens, making it an educational experience for all ages.
The outdoor observation deck offers a panoramic view of the adjacent national historic site, the ruins of Noto Kokubun-ji Temple.
