Akagi Castle Ruins (Akagi Castle Park), Tahirako Pass Execution Ground Ruins Akagi Castle Ruins, and Tabirakotougekei Castle Ruins
Akagi Castle is a flat mountain castle built by Todo Takatora, a master TakatoraTodo builder, using a combination of medieval and early modern castle construction methods, and has castle functions that can be considered the embryo of early modern castles. Also, the castle ruins floating in the morning mist are so fantastic that they are said to be castles in the sky. There are many cherry blossoms in the main building, and it is also known as a famous cherry blossom viewing spot.
The Tahirako Pass Execution Ground is the site where the Kitayama people who resisted the new feudal lords such as Todo TakatoraTodo, who were important figures in both the Toyotomi and Tokugawa regimes, were executed. It is an important ruin that shows the process by which the old forces were suppressed despite their repeated resistance.
TakatoraTodo moved to Kitayama during the invasion of Kishu in 1585, and lived near Kitayama for 11 years until he was given the three Iyo districts of Shikoku in 1595. During this time, the Kitayama uprising of 1587 was defeated and Kitayama timber was cut, and it is thought that the current castle was built around this time.
