K-On! was based on a real-world elementary school in Toyosato. According to
[this article](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyosato,_Shiga) on Wikipedia,
the elementary school moved to a new building in 2004.

Is the old elementary school open year-round to visitors and anime fans?

Is Toyosato Elementary School open to visitors?


Yes it's open to public. The other room of the building is using as office of
city.

Some small things if you want to visit.

  * You need to check schedule, for example 3/1 to 3/18, it was [closed](http://toyosato-kanko.jp/news/%E8%B1%8A%E9%83%B7%E5%B0%8F%E5%AD%A6%E6%A0%A1%E6%97%A7%E6%A0%A1%E8%88%8E%E7%BE%A4%E3%81%AE%E3%81%94%E8%A6%8B%E5%AD%A6%E5%88%B6%E9%99%90%E3%81%AB%E3%81%A4%E3%81%84%E3%81%A6/).
  * [8:30 to 17:00 on weekday. 9:00 to 17:30 on weekend](http://bushitsu.blog47.fc2.com/blog-entry-22.html).
  * It's free but need to sign-in.
  * Some people brake the building the city [considering to close](http://www.town.toyosato.shiga.jp/contents_detail.php?co=tpc&frmId=438). be a good otaku.
