The Japanese Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum (???????, Yaky? Taiiku Hakubutsukan) is a museum which includes a library, reference rooms and Japanese Baseball Hall of Fame (????, Yaky? Dend?).

It first opened in 1959 next door to Korakuen Stadium in Tokyo, Japan. In 1988, the museum moved to a new site within the Tokyo Dome.

The Hall of Fame and Museum was created as a means to contribute to the development of baseball in Japan through dedication of baseball greats--players, executives, and umpires--as Hall of Famers. In addition, the facility houses many memorable baseball materials including various kinds of baseball literature.
