【日本200名城巡り】千葉開府900年！‟千葉の礎”を築いた千葉一族の興亡を刻む「本佐倉城」を歩く

Motosakura Castle straddles the towns of Shisui and Sakura in Chiba Prefecture. Built around 1470 as a medieval/Sengoku period castle, it served as the base of the Chiba clan, who built the foundations of the city of Chiba, for approximately 100 years and nine generations. Motosakura Castle flourished until Toyotomi Hideyoshi unified the country in 1590, and is a castle deeply engraved with the rise and fall of the Chiba clan. We will tour the rustic castle ruins, which still retain their appearance from that time.
