In 1568, Takeda Shingen's alliance with the Hojo fell apart when he attacked the Imagawa. Takeda built Negoya Castle in between Yamana Castle and Chausuyama Castle to fortify his border with the Hojo and help prevent any unrest in the Kozuke (Gunma) region. It may have worked. There is no evidence of any attacks on this area by the Hojo. The castle was likely abandoned when the Takeda withdrew from the the region. The

The original name of the castle is unknown. The name Negoya Castle comes from the town name, but Negoya is not actually unique to this area. It is an old name used for the village around the foot of any mountaintop castle where the guards and soldiers stationed at the castle lived when they were not on duty at the castle. You often see "negoya" as a place name near mountaintop castles. In this case, it was likely that the town was the negoya for Yamana Castle.
