岩倉城, Mountain fortress in Kurayoshi, Japan
Iwakura Castle stands at an elevation of 247 meters on Mount Iwakura, featuring multiple wells and defensive earthworks across its grounds.
The Ogamo clan constructed this castle between 1182 and 1185, maintaining it as their stronghold until its abandonment in 1600 during the Battle of Sekigahara.
The fortress represented the power of regional lords who served as administrative officials in the Inaba Province during the late Heian period.
The remains of the castle contain artificial terraces and archaeological artifacts discovered during road construction work in 1993.
The castle underwent multiple sieges, including attacks by the Amako forces in 1569 and the Mōri clan in 1580 and 1582.
