Kogane Castle, Japanese castle in Ōyaguchi, Japan
The castle spans an area of 800 meters east to west and 700 meters north to south, featuring 12 enclosures on a 20-meter hill in Matsudo.
High-ranking samurai Takagi Tanekichi constructed this military fortress in 1537, establishing it as the largest castle in northwestern Shimōsa Province.
The castle served as a temporary residence for Ashikaga Yoshiuji, the displaced ruler of the Koga government during the 1560s Sengoku period.
The castle remains are accessible via a 10-minute walk from Koganejoshi Station on the Sobu-Nagareyama Line or North Kogane Station on the JR Joban Line.
Archaeological excavations at the castle site revealed gun ammunition, pottery from Seto, Tokoname, and imported Chinese ceramics indicating international trade connections.
