Suemori Castle, Japanese castle in Owari Province, Japan
The fortress sits on a hill at an elevation of 43 meters, featuring dry moats with depths reaching 7 meters along its perimeter.
Oda Nobuhide constructed the castle in 1548 as part of the eastern defense line against potential invasions from Mikawa and Suruga provinces.
The Shiroyama Hachiman Shrine now occupies the main bailey area, preserving the historical grounds where the original castle once stood.
The castle ruins are accessible within a 5-minute walk from Kakuozan Station on the Nagoya Municipal Subway Higashiyama Line.
The castle grounds contain an unusual half-moon shaped fortification, known as Mikazuki-hori, which formed part of its defensive structure.
