    Kunohe Castle ruins

    The site of Kunohe Castle, the last battlefield of Toyotomi Hideyoshi. In the 19th year of Tensho, the castle lord, Masazane Kunohe, started a rebellion because he was dissatisfied with the fact that Nobunao was chosen as the lord of the Nanbu domain. Since this inheritance was officially recognized by Hideyoshi Toyotomi, he was subdued as a traitor and Kunohe Castle fell.
