History

The Jin'ya was established by Asano Nagashige, 3rd son of Asano Nagamasa, around 1622 after the death of Nagamasa (1611). He received a portion of the lands after his father's passing and was permitted a Jin'ya. The third generation Asano Naganao was transferred to the Ako Domain and the Makabe Jin'ya was maintained by the Kasama Domain until the end of the Edo Period.
