Overview

The Snoopy Museum Tokyo is the only official satellite of the Charles M. Schulz Museum in California, located in the Grandberry Park complex. The facility hosts a collection of original Peanuts comic strips, vintage memorabilia, and themed installations. It features a permanent exhibition dedicated to the evolution of the Peanuts characters, particularly Snoopy. A massive Snoopy statue resides in the main lobby, serving as a focal point for visitors. The museum integrates indoor galleries with outdoor green spaces within the surrounding park development. Exhibits are frequently updated to showcase different eras or themes from the comic strip's history. The onsite Brown’s Store offers exclusive merchandise unavailable at standard retail locations. The Peanut’s Cafe, adjacent to the museum, provides themed dining options based on characters from the series.
