Hoi An Ceramic Museum is located at 80 Tran Phu Street, Hoi An City, Quang Nam Province. The museum was opened in 1995 and now displays about 430 pottery exhibits that date back from the 8th to 18th centuries.

Most of pottery exhibits at Hoi An Ceramic Museum come from Middle-East, India, China, Japan, Thailand and Vietnam. Among them, some antiques were picked up from a wrecked ship in the sea in 1933. Others were collected by archaeologists in the excavations carried out at the sites of Hoi An. They are the pottery of the Chinese Tang Dynasty (the 7th-10th centuries), of Middle-East countries in the 9th-10thcenturies and of Viet Nam in the 15th century.

Hoi An ceramic museum is a precious material treasure, which helps confirm the important role of Hoi An Trade Port in trading transactions, which had an immense influence on the economic and socio-cultural development of the town.

It opens every day from 7.00am to 9.00pm, except on 15 monthly closes for professional activities.
