History
Nobatajō was constructed by Sano Samasuke at an unknown time, but likely around the mid' 16th century. Kuroyanagi Hikosuke took over the fort; Kuroyanagi joined the Mikawa Ikkō-Ikki and rebelled against Tokugawa Ieyasu at Honshūji (see Toro Castle (Mikawa)) in 1564.
Visit Notes
Nobatajō is a fortified residence site in the Nobata neighbourhood on the outskirts of urban Okazaki. Nobata is half fields and half suburb, and unfortunately the site of Nobatajō is on the developed side, and no ruins remain. Koaza (block names) remain such as Horinōchi ('Within the Moat') and Dote ('Embankment'), which may relate to the old fort. The site of Jōnenji, a temple, and the surrounding area, is said to have been that of the fort.
