Noda Castle, Medieval fortress in Fukushima district, Osaka, Japan

Noda Castle incorporated natural defenses with moats and earthen embankments situated near the Yodo River crossing point in western Osaka.

Founded in 1531 by Uragami Muramune, the castle gained prominence during conflicts between the Hosokawa and Miyoshi clans in the Sengoku period.

The castle grounds contained multiple Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines, including Gokurakuji Temple and Noda Ebisu Shrine, which remain today.

Modern visitors can locate the castle site through a commemorative stone marker in the Tamagawa area of Fukushima district.

The castle played a central role in the 1570 uprising when the Miyoshi clan expanded its fortifications against Oda Nobunaga's forces.
