Wakamatsu Castle Museum - Aizuwakamatsu

150th Anniversary of the Boshin War Is there a memorial to Gamo Ujisato and a memorial to Uesugi Kagekatsu? I would like to know more about the history of the Kurokawa Castle era. Aizuwakamatsu has a long history The tempura manju from the soba restaurant that I ate for sightseeing is also good, but I strongly remember the spicy radish soba that I heard that Hoshina Masayuki brought back from Nagano Takato. Aizu is profound. On the 27-hour TV I watched on my way to here, Shuzo Matsuoka san Takeshi san said that Hinoemata's cut soba was excellent, so I want to eat it. Hinoemata, another 2 hours from here Today, I'm going back to the grave of Gamo Ujisato. I think I have to come to Aizu again.

I visited in the middle of the autumn leaves. As a special exhibition for the 150th anniversary of the Boshin War, we held the "Battle of Righteousness Protected by Aizu". This is a continuation of the previous special exhibition. Two hours have passed since I saw the trends of the Aizu clan and the Ouetsu clan, the Byakkotai, and the engagement with the new government army. Also, although it was raining, the view from the castle tower was also good. There was a rainbow and there seemed to be a Kannon image on the skirt. Many foreigners also enthusiastically watched it. I look forward to the next project and will visit you again.

In the 2nd year of Bunroku (1593), Gamo Ujisato built the first full-scale castle tower in eastern Japan. After subsequent renovations, its robustness was known throughout the country during the Boshin War in 1868, but it was demolished by the 7th year of the Meiji era. Tsuruga Castle was revived in September 1965 with the donations of many people. In the spring of 2011, it became the only castle tower in Japan that wore roof tiles (red roof tiles) from the late Tokugawa period. In April 2015, the exhibition room was completely renewed to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the reconstruction of the castle tower. ~ Posted from IM Internet museum ~ □ Sanctuary / Location ★★★★★ ~ 2012 NHK Taiga Drama "Yae no Sakura" ~ (Haruka Ayase / Hidetoshi Nishijima / Go Ayano / Hiroki Hasegawa) ~ New Year wide historical drama "White Tiger Corps" ~ (Kinya Kitaoji / Hitomi Kuroki) ~ Saturday Wide Theater ~ ・ Archaeologist Series # 8 Married Woman Killing (Kinya Aikawa / Toshio Kurosawa / Naomi Kawashima) ・ Apotropaic business prosperity murder case # 1 Fear starting at night in Asakusa Hozuki City (Hiroki Matsukata / Yoko Moriguchi) ・ Railway Investigator # 9 Aizu Railway, murder scene spreading in the train window (Yasuko Sawaguchi / Tamao Sato / Noboru Kaneko / Momiji Yamamura) ・ 100 qualified women # 9 Aizu Wakamatsu Undercover investigation into a long-established lacquer ware store!

Look at the exhibits in order from bottom to top, and finally enjoy the view from the castle tower and come down. The exhibits and explanations were simple and easy to read, and I was able to see them smoothly without having too many characters. The sword of the same type as the sword from Aizu that Toshizo Hijikata used was very beautiful. I also learned that people from Aizu were still active in the Meiji era. A set of Tsuruga Castle + Tea Room Rinkaku + Oyakuen admission ticket is a great deal.
