There are slippery places from the parking lot to the castle toes, so please wear comfortable shoes. It cannot be said that the grass on the road is always mowed.

Yasuda Castle Ruins Currently, the main enclosure is a children's park with almost the original terrain, and there are other remains of Horikiri and earthworks. 【guidance】 Yasuda Castle is a castle built by Hisanori Yasuda, who inherits the lineage of the Oe Mori clan. Currently, it is located in Yasuda Castle Ruins Park in Yasuda's Jonogumi Village, and has an eastern house and a stone monument. The park is located at the eastern end of a mountain range with an altitude of 30 to 50 meters between the Ugawa and Sabaishi rivers centered on the Karuigawa river. To the east is Hojo Castle across the Sabaishi river, and to the north is an industrial park. The main circle is a Kuruwa about 90 meters north and south of the center, with an altitude of 51 meters and a relative height of about 35 meters from the surrounding paddy fields. There is a small Kuruwa on the east side, which is a koguchi. Other than the road through here, it seems better not to think of it as the original castle. The surrounding area is an important cliff of 7 to 10 meters, and the south side is cut off by an empty moat. It is said that the road that goes down from the bottom of the moat into the village to the east is the sword, and there is also Nijo's empty moat on the south side of this large empty moat, which extends to the slopes on both sides. The eastern part of the main enclosure is Ninomaru, but it is now an amusement park. The southern end is a large earthwork from the hem of the main enclosure, which shields the inside of the Kuruwa from the inside of the empty moat and the road. At the northern end, the ridge is cut with an empty moat, and a private house descends from there. This is considered a major road. This private house is called "Oyashiki", and it is conceivable that there was a residence under this Ninomaru. Mr. Yasuda inherits the lineage of Hiromoto Oe, a vassal of the Kamakura Shogunate who served Minamoto no Yoritomo. Hiromoto's fourth son, Suemitsu, came to call him Mori because he inherited Sagami Kuni Mourisho from Hiromoto, and Kikou's grandson (the eldest son of Keiko) became the ancestor of Echigo Kokusei Mori. rice field. Tsunemitsu's fourth son, Tokichika, is the ancestor of Mori, an Aki province who dominated the Chugoku region during the Warring States period. After that, Mr. Mouri Echigo was divided into Mr. Hojo Echigo and Mr. Yasuda, Mr. Yasuda survived the Warring States period according to Kenshin Uesugi, and finally moved to Aizu with Kagekatsu Uesugi, and the Yasuda family will continue for generations. #Castle #Castle #Castle Ruins #Niigata Prefecture #Kashiwazaki City #Yasuda Castle
