Daikichi Imura, the magistrate of Taipei Prefecture under Japanese Colonial Government, built the Beitou Public Bathhouse in June 1913, which was the largest bathhouse in East Asia at that time. The design of the bathhouse was based on the Mount Izu Hot Spring Bathhouse in Japan. After World War II, the Beitou Public Bathhouse was abandoned due to constantly changing institutions in charge.
In 1994, a group of teachers and students from Beitou Elementary School discovered the deserted bathhouse on a field trip of local culture course, and petitioned for the conservation of it. The Beitou Public Bathhouse was finally declared municipal historic site on February 20, 1997. After certain restorations, the Beitou Hot Spring Museum was open to Public on October 31, 1998.
