History

This fortified residence was the home of the Kazurayama from around the 1100s to the late 1500s. It was closely situated with the homes of other retainers with a network of moats and earthen embankments. Unfortunately. the moats have been filled in. The residences on the sides of this one have been turned into farmland or private property today so you can only visit this one.

Kazurayama Castle is the mountain retreat or last redoubt (詰の城) paired with this fortified manor of the Kazurayama. See Kazurayama Castle for more details
