The Lukang Folk Arts Museum was established in 1973, with all the buildings, land, furniture, utensils and collector's items having been donated by the Koo family and other private benefactors. The museum holds more than 6,000 articles.
The items exhibited in the museum mostly dated from the mid-Ching dynasty to the early years of the Republic. Fascinating household, travel, and recreational items, as well as religious implements and celebratory artifacts are displayed for visitors.
The museum has a strong local flavor on itself. The architecture of the museum and the pieces housed within not only demonstrate the craftsmanship of the forefathers, but also attest to the thriving Lukang of old. |
