Kizu Castle, Medieval fortress in Kiyosu, Japan.
The castle structure includes three main baileys arranged in sequence on Mount Kase, connected through a network of terraced defensive positions.
Between 1394 and 1427, the fortress was constructed to protect the intersection of Ise Kaido and Nakasendo highways linking Kyoto to Kamakura.
The castle demonstrates traditional Japanese defensive architecture with stepped baileys along mountain ridges and vertical trenches called unejo tatebori.
A local mini-bus from JR Kizu Station brings visitors near the castle grounds, followed by a twenty-minute walk to reach the entrance.
The castle grounds contain preserved earthworks and moats, with primary defensive structures concentrated on southern and western sides against Miyoshi forces.
