Seto City produces Seto ware, which gave Japanese ceramics the general name "setomono," and has long grown together with pottery. Among the potteries in town remain the Kamagaki-no-Komichi, a lane with walls of stacked kiln tools, and in September the "Setomono Festival" holds a large pottery market. The Aichi Prefectural Ceramic Museum is also here.
