Nothing remains of Oshiganejō. On the site is a small park called "Honjō", as in "Main Castle". There is a small mound at the back with graves atop.

History

Oshigane Castle was built by the Tada Clan, also called the Oshigane Clan. It seems that the residence built by the Tada later became a temple called Seidenji. Now the area is a residential neighbourhood.
