Matsusaka Castle Ruins (Matsusaka Park) Matsusaka Castle Ruins (Matsusaka Kouen)
A symbol of Matsusaka with its majestic stone walls
Hirayama Castle was built by Ujisato Gamo in 1588.
The magnificent stone walls, including the fields that still remain today, are a symbol of Matsusaka.
Cherry blossoms, wisteria, and ginkgo trees decorate the stone walls, making it popular with local residents throughout the year.
From the castle ruins, you can see a panoramic view of the town that retains the vestiges of the castle town.
In February 2011, it was designated as a national historic site.
