Takeda Shrine, Shinto shrine on former Tsutsujigasaki residence grounds in Kofu, Japan
The shrine contains multiple torii gates, a main hall, prayer spaces, and stone walls remaining from the original fortified residence complex.
Emperor Taisho commissioned the construction of Takeda Shrine in 1915, leading to its completion in 1919 on the ruins of Tsutsujigasaki residence.
The shrine honors Takeda Shingen, a feudal warlord who controlled vast territories and shaped regional development during Japan's Warring States period.
Visitors can reach the shrine via a ten-minute bus ride from Kofu Station, with services running hourly at a cost of 230 yen.
The shrine's treasure house displays a National Important Cultural Property: a Kamakura-period sword crafted by Yoshioka Ichimonji from Bizen.
