This beautiful Castle carries an ancient but a legendry history.Here is a short note on the same based on my web search.
This castle proudly carries the the history of three "Heroes" ie.. Emperors viz.. IMAGAWA UJICHIKA,first to start, ODA NOBUNAGA(ODA NOBUHIDE) and finally TOGUGAWA LEYASU.
Imagawa Ujichika built the original castle at nagoya around 1525. Was taken over by Oda Nobuhide/naga in 1532,but was later abandoned. In 1610, Tokugawa Leyasu started building a new castle ,which was completed in 1612. This functioned as a home for Tokugawa family for 16 generations,until the Meiji Restoration in 1868.
Finally during the world war II it was destroyed by fire, but the Donjon was rebuilt.
