history
Iwasaki Castle is the castle of the Waka family, who ruled the Waga region for about 400 years before and after the Muromachi period, and boasts a scale that is second only to Fonago Castle, the main castle. Also known as the “Waga Shield,” Iwasaki-Oi will live in the South-Northern Era, and will come in contact with the territory in Ryakuo 4 (1341). There is also a record that there has been a battle of Mr. Onyanagi) and that there has been an apostle on the ground. Furthermore, it is thought that it was the residence of Mr. Iwasaki for generations because Mr. Iwasaki entered the battle between Mr. Waga and Mr. Akita Sennakita's Oda Keigo party in 1513. In 1590, the territory of Mr. Waga was taken up by Toyotomi Hideyoshi's Oshu, but the Waka family was uprised at Iwasaki Castle and fought with Mr. Nambu. After the suppression, it was repaired by Mr. Nambu, and a southern family member has entered the castle for environmental security.
