Château de Kaifu, Japanese castle in Tokushima Prefecture, Japan
The Kaifu Castle features traditional fortified walls and follows the architectural pattern of Japanese castles with a central keep within the main compound.
The castle emerged during the Warring States period when regional leaders constructed fortifications to maintain control over their territories in feudal Japan.
Like many Japanese castles, Kaifu represents the power structure of feudal society where regional lords governed from these strategic military installations.
The castle's position provided defensive advantages through its elevated location and structural layout, incorporating multiple defensive barriers against potential attackers.
The structure integrates traditional Japanese building techniques, utilizing wood as the primary material while incorporating stone foundations for enhanced stability.
