78)Minakuchi Castle(Japan)It was built by Tokugawa Iemitsu to stay overnight on his way to Kyoto.
It is located in Koka City, Shiga Prefecture.
This castle was built in 1634 by the third shogun, Tokugawa Iemitsu, as a lodging when he went to Kyoto.
A luxurious palace was built within the castle, modeled after the palace at Nijo Castle.
However, this palace was only used as the shogun’s quarters once, when Tokugawa Iemitsu came to Kyoto.
In 1682, Akitomo Kato entered the castle and established the Minakuchi clan.
Successive generations of the Minakuchi clan carefully managed the castle as a castle leased from the shogunate, and did not use the main palace palace even though it was their residence.
This is a video of a 48-year-old bachelor who silently visited the castle by himself.
I am posting a visit record of historical remains such as castle ruins that I visited as I thought, based on the belief that I do not flock and do not flirt.
