Kitsuki Castle Town
This former castle town district is located in Kitsuki, Kitsuki City. This distinctive, so-called “sandwich style castle town” formed around Kitsuki Castle, built in 1394, and consisted of a merchant district sandwiched between samurai residences in the north and south high grounds. Today, the grounds of the castle are maintained as a park with a reconstructed faux castle tower in the center, and the former castle town surrounding it still contains a townscape consisting of numerous preserved samurai residences and merchant homes.
