Usuki City has a collection of about 35,000 historical materials. In addition to materials related to Otomo Sorin, whose name was known even in Rome, and Inaba Itotsetsu, who was trusted by Oda Nobunaga and was the father of the first lord of the Usuki domain, there is an abundance of hand-drawn maps (old maps) depicting not only the Usuki domain but also other parts of Japan and even the world, which is extremely rare in Japan.
