Château de Tsurusaki, Japanese castle ruins in Ōita, Japan
The castle site encompasses the current grounds of Tsurusaki elementary school and high school, situated between the Ono-gawa and Otozu-gawa rivers.
Nagamasu Yoshioka, a prominent retainer of the Otomo clan, constructed Tsurusaki Castle during the first half of the 16th century.
The castle site reflects the military architecture of feudal Japan, where strategic positions near rivers enabled control of transportation routes.
The location connects the east end of Oita plain to the Sagamisaki peninsula and Usuki area through ancient transportation routes.
Lady Myorinni led a successful defense against the Shimazu army in 1586, using tactical deception during a farewell party to defeat the enemy forces.
