Ōgaki Castle, Military museum and Japanese castle in Ogaki, Japan
The castle structure features four defensive moats surrounding a central tower situated within Ogaki Park in Gifu Prefecture.
Constructed in 1535, the castle served as a crucial military stronghold during the Battle of Sekigahara and underwent reconstruction in 1959 after World War II destruction.
The castle maintains its position in the Continued Top 100 Japanese Castles list and houses exhibitions dedicated to regional military history.
Visitors can access multiple exhibition levels inside the reconstructed castle tower and explore the surrounding park grounds throughout the year.
The fortress changed ownership among six different clans throughout its history, including the Takenokoshi, Ujiie, Ito, Okabe, Matsudaira, and Toda families.
