Furuwatari Castle, Japanese castle in Naka-ku, Nagoya, Japan
The castle grounds measured 140 meters east to west and 100 meters north to south, protected by double moats on all sides.
Oda Nobuhide constructed Furuwatari Castle in 1534 as a strategic fortification against potential attacks from the southeastern regions.
The castle grounds are now part of the Higashi Hongan-ji Temple complex, featuring a stone monument that marks the historical location.
Located five minutes on foot from Higashi Bessho Station on the Meijo Line, the site includes Shimote-Chaya Park with its central pond.
The castle was active for only fourteen years until 1548, when Oda Nobuhide transferred his operations to Sumiyoshi Castle.
