Château de Chausuyama

The castle remains sit at the summit of Mount Chausuyama, featuring stone walls and earthworks that demonstrate medieval Japanese fortification techniques.

The Mōri clan constructed this strategic fortress during the 16th century to control regional territories and maintain supervision over important trade routes.

The site preserves the architectural elements of traditional Japanese castle design, including stone foundations and defensive structures from the Sengoku period.

Multiple hiking trails lead visitors to the castle site, with directional signs and viewing points placed along the paths for navigation.

The stone walls incorporate specific construction methods that allowed defenders to monitor approaching forces while remaining protected behind the fortifications.
