Numazu Castle, Japanese castle in Numazu, Japan.

The castle complex includes stone walls, moats, and fortified gates positioned on flat terrain near the intersection of Izu and Suruga regions.

Built in 1780 under the supervision of feudal lord Mizuno Tadatomo, the castle served as the administrative center of the Numazu domain until 1868.

The castle grounds transformed into Central Park, featuring commemorative stones and information boards that detail the structure's architectural elements and military significance.

Located 5 minutes on foot from JR Numazu Station and 10 minutes by car from Numazu Interchange on the Tomei Expressway.

The Tsujinobo gate at Kocho-ji Temple contains materials from the original castle gate, representing one of the few remaining physical elements.
