TOTO LTD. was founded in 1917 in Kitakyushu City, Fukuoka Prefecture.
At that time, sewage systems were not yet in place in Japan.
Therefore, the company began manufacturing sanitary products, mainly using ceramics, in the hope that the people of Japan would achieve a healthy and refined lifestyle.

One of TOTO LTD.'s most famous products is the "WASHLET," a toilet seat that can be used to wash one's buttocks.
This product is popular worldwide.

TOTO MUSEUM was established to commemorate the 100th anniversary of TOTO LTD.
The museum explains the spirit and history of the company and the evolution of "Ceramic Sanitary Ware".
The history of tableware production is also explained, as TOTO LTD. also manufactured ceramic tableware.









This is a view of the museum interior.

A motorcycle was on display at the museum.

The motorcycle is fueled by biogas made from animal waste and other materials.
