notes: The stone foundation of the main keep is nozurazumi style, using nearly natural stones with little shaping. The smoothness of them makes me think they may have been from a river, but unfortunately the guides at the castle could not answer that question. The nearby Koseki Residence, a samurai home is also a must see if you are in Shiroishi. It is one of the best samurai homes I've visited. There are also two original gates from that castle that have been repurposed at temples in the city. They are uniquely designed and well worth a visit if you have time.
