Narumi Castle

There really isn't anything castle-like to see here except for the signs, but historically it makes for an interesting stopover if you're exploring the neighboring sites. The castle location, now Narumi Castle Park, offers a commanding view of the area too.

History

It was fiercely held by Okabe Motonobu even after the death of Imagawa Yoshitomo at the Battle of Okehazama. Oda Nobunaga built several forts around Narumi Castle Narumi castle was another Imagawa stronghold near Okehazama.

Field Notes
