Orizu Castle, Medieval fortress in Aichi Prefecture, Japan

Orizu Castle features traditional stone walls and wooden structures positioned on elevated terrain for strategic military advantage in western Japan.

The late 16th century castle served as a defensive fortification during the Sengoku period until its loss in 1478 during an Oda clan civil war.

The castle architecture incorporates elements of Japanese military engineering with carefully positioned defensive structures and observation points for enemy detection.

Information boards throughout the castle grounds provide visitors with details about the structure's military importance and architectural features.

The castle location provided controllers with direct views of approaching forces along multiple strategic pathways connecting major regional centers.
