About this place
The family temple of Shibata Katsuie and Oichi no Kata in Sanai-cho, Fukui. After the fall of the Asakura clan, when Katsuie built his castle at Kitanosho, it is said to have been moved from Okaho Jiromaru in Yoshida District to the present Sanai-cho. The grounds hold the grave where Katsuie and Oichi no Kata rest, and the Shibata Katsuie Museum displays their personal Buddhist images, swords and other relics. The grave of Niwa Nagahide is about 800 m away.
