Tsujouato Ruins
Oda Nobukae (Nobunaga's younger brother) built Tsu Castle in 1580.
Since then, Tsu has developed as a castle town. The outer moat of the castle was built with a main enclosure at its center, and several river streams were incorporated into the castle's outer moat, making it a strong defensive castle despite being located in a low-lying wetland area.
Later, TakatoraTodo transferred the territory from Imabari (Ehime Prefecture) in Iyo, Shikoku, and in 1611 he carried out large-scale renovations, rebuilding the stone forts on the north side higher and building a Mie castle in both its northeast and northwest corners. I made a turret.
In addition, while building samurai residences around the castle, the townspeople brought from Iyo were made to live south of the Iwata River, creating Iyo Town.
Furthermore, Takatora laid the foundations for Tsu by bringing the Sangu Highway into the castle grounds and cutting out the Horikawa River to the east of the castle. The second lord, Takatsugu, developed the castle town based on this, and until the Meiji Restoration, Tsu flourished as a castle town with an income of 320,000 koku.
Even into the Meiji era, the town remained almost the same as the old castle town, but towards the end of the Meiji era, the outer moat was filled in and new roads and towns began to be built.
Nowadays, only parts of the Honmaru, Nishinomaru, and Uchibori remain, but old pine trees grow on the three-story white walls of the reconstructed corner turret, and you can remember the past with the moss-covered stone walls.
*There is also a statue TakatoraTodo.
