The museum fills the original red-brick loom factory where the Toyota group began. In the textile hall, century-old looms clatter away in live demonstrations; across in the automobile hall, presses and welding robots walk you through how a car body is built. Because the machines actually move, both kids and adults stay longer than planned. Reviews often say you don't need to be a car person to enjoy it.
