波賀城史跡公園, Historical castle park in Shiso, Japan
Description

History
The castle was founded in 1261 by Haga Shichiro and remained under Nakamura clan control through the late Sengoku period. It served as a strategic location during this turbulent military era of Japanese history.

The learning center inside the reconstructed tower displays artifacts and documents explaining medieval Japanese castle construction methods. Visitors can see how defensive structures were designed and adapted to the mountain terrain during this period.
