History

Kaneko Takanori built this castle as his home after being given the area called Nanbata. He took the place name as his new surname. In the early part of the Sengoku Period, Nanbata was allied with Ogigayatsu Uesugi. At this time, the castle was little more than a fortified palace. In 1546, the castle fell to attack by the Hojo and was put under the control of the Ueda clan. Around this time, the castle was fortified with 3 circular moats and developed into a Sengoku Period castle. The castle fell along with Matsuyama Castle in Hideyoshi's Siege of Odawara (1590). It was abandoned at this time and a temple was built on the site during the Edo Period.


Field Notes

A surprisingly nice little park and museum. The old buildings that have been moved here or built for the museum make it worth the trip. The moats and embankments have been reconstructed based on excavations and historical records. The site is well signposted in Japanese, but you can ask for some basic English materials inside the museum.
