Nedo Castle

Nedo Castle is a fortress ruin in Abiko, where stone foundations sit on elevated terrain and define the original layout. The remains show a central keep structure with three extending sections that once formed a cohesive defensive complex.

The fortress was founded in 1411 and served as a military stronghold for generations. Following the battle of Sekigahara in 1600, it was abandoned and left to decay.

The site maintains original stone walls that demonstrate traditional Japanese fortification methods and medieval architectural techniques.

The ruins can be reached by following clearly marked walking paths from Takeda Station on the JR Bantan Line. The terrain is accessible for those interested in exploring the foundation layout at a leisurely pace.

The foundation structures reveal a specific construction pattern where each wing of the castle extended at different angles for strategic positioning.
