Château d'Odome, Medieval fortress in Aichi Prefecture, Japan

The castle features traditional Japanese architectural elements with multiple defensive rings and wooden structures positioned at strategic heights above stone foundations.

During the Sengoku period of the 15th century, the castle served as a defensive stronghold amid regional conflicts between competing feudal states.

The castle layout reflects Japanese military engineering principles, with separate areas designated for samurai residences according to their hierarchical status.

Visitors can reach the castle ruins by taking a local bus from Toyohashi Station to the base of the mountain where hiking trails begin.

The castle site maintains original stone walls and foundation structures that showcase medieval Japanese construction techniques used in mountain fortifications.
