History
Very little is known about the history of Naka Castle. It seems to have been around since the Kamakura Period (1185-1333) when it may have been a fortified home of Mashio Taro Tanenao. The fortifications you see here date to the Sengoku Period when it was an outer fortification of Koshigoe Castle.
The castle is basically one bailey surrounded by a large deep moat (trench) with an additional earthen embankment built up on the inside. The east side is split into two levels.
Visit Notes
Situated on a small hill close to the station this castle is easy to visit. For a small castle site with little known history it has been preserved surprisingly well. It's a good site to visit for those interested in the development of early castles.
駅に近い小高い山にあるこの城は訪れやすいです。中城は小さいし歴史もあまりはっきりしていない割に以降がしっかり残されているのは嬉しいです。城の発達に興味がある人には必見です。
