Tokushima Castle
Last update
Completed in 1586 by Hachisuka Iemasa. It continued to be the castle of the Hachisuka clan of the Tokushima domain until the Meiji Restoration. The stone walls are made of blue stones called crystalline schist, which are mined locally in Mt. Bizan. Currently, to the southeast of the castle mountain, you can see the restored Washi no Mon Gate, the replaced wooden bridge of Sukiyabashi, and the Tokushima Castle Museum.
