About Kagoshima Castle

Kagoshima Castle also known as Tsurumaru Castle, is a Japanese castle in Kagoshima City, Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan. Begun in 1601, it took 10 years to finish Kagoshima Castle. The design is extremely basic with just the honmaru and ninomaru baileys at the foot of the mountain. The chateau had just door with a castle and government workplaces, yet no yagura or primary keep. The basic plan and few structures is likely because of an absence of assets and from a contradiction amongst Iehisa and his dad, who was against building the chateau, over how to spend constrained assets. 12 ages of the Shimazu led over Kagoshima mansion until the point that it was decommissioned in 1873.

This manor was built by Shimazu Iehisa in 1601. In 1600 Shimazu Yoshihiro, the dad of Iehisa, was vanquished at the Battle of Sekigahara as a daimyo of the western organization together, by the eastern partnership drove by Tokugawa Ieyasu. This stronghold was worked after the thrashing and in the serious political pressure with Ieyasu. This palace is outstanding for the little scale and genuinely low quality as a primary manor of one of the most extravagant daimyos in Japan. It is said that Shimazu feared giving the Tokugawa a reason to assault Shimazu region by making too extensive a manor.
