Site of Ichinohe Castle - Ninohe District

There are playsets, but I use it as a place where I can spend a relaxing time because it has a nice view overlooking the town in a quiet place.

The decaying signboard of the Ichinohe Tourism Association invites melancholy in the grass. A guide pillar with the name of Ichinohe Castle Ruins is broken from the base in the bamboo thicket. I wonder how many times you can drop this castle. Symbol of government neglect.

A word ~ ​​It's dirty ~ The historic site of Ichinohe Castle Is this good? When I was little, it was a wonderful park overlooking Ichinohe. Nowadays, unmaintained trees are rotten and fallen, and it is very embarrassing for tourists who can see the trees from all over the country with their branches falling. It's okay to modify the new park, but I hope that the many old sites will become beautiful and wonderful places where anyone can miss the old days. The parking lot seems to be a meeting place for the site, and many empty cars are parked. Garbage is also buried under the snow.

20200229 Misawa was a sunny day, so I went to Aomori-Iwate and the rest of the "Poto Castle" bullet tour. At first, we arrived at Iwate "Ichinohe Castle Ruins" without any information signs. Ichinohe Castle is the residence of Nanchi Ichinohe, a family of Nanbu who ruled Nukabe and its surroundings. It is said that Yoshimitsu Settsumori, the second generation of Nanbu Ichinohe, took over 20,000 stones and moved to Ichinohe Castle. In the Muromachi era, Mr. Nannobu, the main house, emerged and expanded his power mainly in Nukabe-gun, but along with that, Mr. Ichinohe also produced clan in various places, Hiradate, Arakida, Sentoku, Tsugarishi It is said that he became the ancestor of Horikiri, Yuki, Noda, Yanai, Nakamura, and Kaneda. In 1581, the castle's owner, Daisuke Masanori, was stabbed by his brother, Hiradate Shinanomori Masabata, with his parent and child. Later, due to the struggle between Mr. Nannobu and Mr. Kunohe, Ichinohe Castle was attacked by Nobumasa Nanbu in 1591 as a preparatory battle for Hideyoshi Toyotomi's attack on Kunojo Castle in 1991. It seems he did. After the repression of Kunohe, Bunroku first year (1592), Ichinohe Castle was abandoned. Ichinohe Castle is located in the eastern part of the center of Ichinohe-machi. It is divided from the north into three wards: Kitakan, Hachimankan, and Shinmeikan. It is said that the Honmaru was located in the North Building, but the results of excavations suggest that the central Shinmeikan was the main fort. At present, the National Highway No. 4 bypass penetrates the west side of the castle, and a large-scale excavation was conducted during its construction. At present, the castle ruins had a parking lot along National Route 4 bypass and became Ichinohe Park. There are various monuments, rest areas, and playground equipment. Next to the park is a “Ichinohe Waterworks” tank! There is also a public toilet, but please note that it is closed in winter! The "Minja Shrine" enshrined at the site of Ichinohe Castle was also very rough. I found this shrine while walking around Ichinohe Castle ruins, but I refrained from worshiping only with photos. I found a monument "Historic Site Ichinohe Castle" monument that fell for 30 minutes while searching for foot while snowing! For the history, I was a little disappointed.
