Terabe Castle, Japanese castle in Toyota, Japan

The fortress stands on flatland with foundation remains, earthen ramparts, and several wells distributed across the historical grounds at Toyota city.

Constructed in the late 15th century by Suzuki Shigetoki, Terabe Castle became the site of Tokugawa Ieyasu's first military engagement in 1558.

The castle grounds contain a shrine dedicated to Watanabe Moritsuna, a skilled warrior who later administered the location as a jin'ya during the Edo period.

Visitors can reach the castle site by taking a 30-minute walk from Toyota-shi Station on the Meitetsu Toyota railway line.

A preserved drawing room from the original Terabe-jin'ya structure currently resides at nearby Koromo Castle, maintaining a physical connection to the past.
