Tsu Castle, Japanese castle in Tsu, Japan
The castle stands at the meeting point of the Ano and Iwata rivers, which form natural moats around the fortification walls.
Oda Nobukane, brother of the famous warlord Oda Nobunaga, constructed the original five-story castle structure in 1558 as a strategic stronghold.
The castle grounds now function as a public park where visitors can observe the remaining stone walls and reconstructed corner watchtower.
Visitors can reach the castle within 50 minutes by Limited Express train from Nagoya Kintetsu Station to Tsu Shinmachi Station.
The equestrian statue of Todo Takatora, a master castle architect who renovated the structure in 1608, stands near the original tower foundation.
