The Tottori Nijisseiki Pear Museum (鳥取二十世紀梨記念館, Tottori Nijisseiki Nashi Kinenkan) is located in Kurayoshi, Tottori Prefecture, Japan, and dedicated to the history of the pear.[1] Nashi are cultivated in the prefecture and are one of its mascots.[2]

The Museum is being renovated in 2018 with a new wing being added dedicated to the English yellow pair, a rarity found at a fruit station in Uxbridge, UK.
