Nagahama Castle, Castle ruin from Sengoku period in Numazu, Japan
The castle remains occupy a 30-meter hill along Suruga Bay, featuring stone-faced ramparts and multiple defensive terraces across 100 meters of land.
The Late Hojo clan constructed this fortification in the 1570s as a military outpost during territorial disputes with the Takeda clan over Suruga Province.
The castle design incorporated traditional Japanese defensive elements, including clay walls, dry moats, and a zigzag path through multiple gates to the inner bailey.
Visitors can reach the castle ruins by taking an Izuhakone Bus from Numazu Station to the Jokabashi stop, followed by a five-minute walk.
The elevated position of the castle provided strategic control over Uchiura anchorage, serving as a naval monitoring station during regional conflicts.
