About this place

Takatō Castle (高遠城, Takatō-jō) is a Japanese castle located in the city of Ina, southern Nagano Prefecture, Japan. At the end of the Edo period, Takatō Castle was home to a cadet branch of the Naitō clan, daimyō of Takatō Domain. The castle was also known as Kabuto Castle (兜山城, Kabuto-jō). Built sometime in the 16th century, it is now largely in ruins.
