Yuan's 11th generation の City Place

Original Text

From the early Edo period to the end of the Edo period, there were consistently part of honmaru and Ninomaru in the residence of the tozawa clan. Currently, it is considered to be Mogami Park, and when you enter through the water moat from a major company with a monument to Tozawa Shrine, you will see a magnificent stone wall on the right side, which seems to be the site of the turret gate of the turret gate. Is it the highlight? In addition, the front of the shrine in Honmaru is a parking space, but it is surrounded by a high Honmaru earthwork. This earthwork is also a highlight. (I'm sorry I couldn't climb the earthwork due to time constraints) The water moat remained wide and ...

There are several shrines.

From Shinjo Station on the Ou Main Line, go straight west on the main street in front of the station. It is about １㎞.

Shinjo Castle is the residence of Mr. Tozawa, who is 60,000 stones from the Shinjo clan. Mr. Tozawa entered this area after Mr. Mogami was deprived of his fief. Mamuro Castle, which was a mountain castle, was inconvenient, so we built this flat castle. Later, most of them were destroyed by fire in the Boshin War. Now, I have no choice but to remember those days with moats and stone walls.

(Shinjo Castle Ruins) Only the moat and Ikegaki, the turret gate of the main enclosure, and some earthworks are reminiscent of those days.
