Honnoji Incident ruins monument - Kyoto

The place of the greatest incident in Japanese history. When I wanted to stand here someday, I happened to be near the hotel where I stayed, so I went by bicycle. Nowadays, there are only stone monuments and it is a residential area, but when you close your eyes, you can see the sight that everyone knows in movies and dramas. People who like Sengoku should definitely visit.

This is the place where the "Honnoji Incident" actually happened. The Honnoji Temple, which is currently in front of the city hall, was relocated by Hideyoshi. It is attracting attention for "Kirin coming", but unfortunately there is only a stone monument. But when I think that Nobunaga really died here, I'm deeply moved.

Akechi Mitsuhide used his servants to assassinate Nobunaga in both double and triple directions, and used about 100 servants who remembered his arms from the north and south gates of Honnoji. It is famous for the place where Nobunaga was assassinated by assassinating his servants, but when there was a change in Honnoji, Mitsuhide was not in this place and made his son-in-law the leader of Nobunaga's assassination and made him fight at Honnoji. He was waiting for the result report by setting up a camp at Shichijo Ohashi. It is said that Mitsuhide, who succeeded in assassinating Nobunaga, went to Azuchi Castle, took out the treasures in the castle, and offered a considerable amount of money to the public house. I think Nobunaga himself had the feeling that he might be assassinated by someone someday from a young age. .. There was a time when he was actually assassinated many times, and he was shot twice from the mountain with a gun, but the book says that he was saved just by scratching his face and body. Nobunaga-san was always prepared to be assassinated, so I think he wasn't too upset at the time of the Honnoji Incident. By the way, Mitsuhide often used it in historical drama as "the enemy is in Honnoji", but in reality, he didn't say that, and the words written in the period drama books of the Meiji era became famous. Just like that.

There are only stone monuments on the northeast and west sides of the instinct nursing home. The current Honnoji Temple is near Kyoto Shiyakusho-mae Station, but as the name of Motohonnoji Town suggests, this is the place where Honnoji was originally located, and it is also this place where Nobunaga was struck. It is accessible within a 10-minute walk from Shijo Subway Station.

Hokke-ji Temple was founded by Nichiryu of Myohon-ji Temple (now Myoken-ji Temple) in 1415, the head temple of the Hokke-shu main gate. When it was built, it was located in Takatsuji, Yukoji, and was called Honoji. In 1433, he moved to Shijobomon Omiya and changed it to Honnoji. At the time of the Honnoji Incident on June 2, 1582, it had a temple area surrounded by hexagons in the north, Takoyakushi in the south, Nishinotoin in the east, and Aburanokoji in the west. Later, he moved to Teramachi Oike at the behest of Hideyoshi Toyotomi (1536-98). This stone marker shows the location of Honnoji Temple at the time of the change. Motohonnoji Minamimachi is named after Motohonnoji Temple.

Omotoyama Honnoji Temple

There is a "Honnoji Ruins Stone Monument" on the premises of the instinct special elderly nursing home on the east side of the Aburanokoji Takoyakushi intersection to the south. In addition to this stone monument, a piece tag of the remains of Honnoji Temple is posted on the north wall of the site of Kyoto Municipal Horikawa High School Instinct School. In addition to this stone monument and Komafuda, there is a "Honnoji Ruins Stone Monument near here" at the southwest corner of Ogawa Takoyakushi. There are three close-up distances as the remains of Honnoji. This is the place where the Honnoji Temple, which burned up with Nobunaga Oda during the Honnoji Incident, was located here. Honnoji was about to be rebuilt there, but it was said that it was rebuilt in Oike-dori-cho at the behest of Toyotomi Hideyoshi just before. I remember hearing on a previous TV program that the eastern side was higher than Honnoji, and the precincts of Honnoji were more visible than the Akechi army at the time of the Honnoji Incident. You can see that the road is climbing. At that time, there were no tall buildings such as condominiums, so it is understandable that you can see the whole view when the terrain is high.
