Kisai Castle

Tourist attraction Castle

😐 I stopped by while visiting Tamashiki Shrine to see the wisteria flowers. This castle building seems to be used as a museum, but it is not always open to the public, and is only open to the public from late April to early May and early November. People often mention castle,

    Unfortunately, it was closed when I visited, but when I looked into the adjacent Kisai Library, an elderly man approached me and told me that although it was already closed, there was an exhibition by Professor Taniyama on the second floor. Wondering what it was, I went back and looked at the sign at the entrance, and it turned out to be Mr. Tanimura, the one who made the Shimura-Taniyama conjecture. When I asked an elderly man, that was exactly what he said.If you were coming from Tokyo, you could talk to the museum director and negotiate with him that he would let you see the exhibit even though it was closed, and he was able to see the exhibit even though it was after closing time. Mr. Taniyama is a great mathematician from Kazo City who came up with the Shimura-Taniyama conjecture, which was an important clue for Andrew Wiles to solve Fermat's Last Theorem in 1993. His belongings and achievements were on display on a small scale, and I was deeply moved by the fact that a mathematician whose name is unknown to the rest of the world was born and raised in this city. If you have a chance, please come and visit us.

    2023.12.20 I stopped by on a bike tour. The museum is closed...Is it now a storage room at City Hall? The original castle was Heike...

    It is the symbol of Kazo City. Contains a local materials exhibition room. There is a triple turret, but it seems that there was none in reality.

    Today was a very hot day. A festival market was being held in the square! ️It was a community-based event with bands and stalls. The castle there was Kisai Castle Ruins. Inside the building, there were a few old items on display from the area. This castle was once attacked by the famous Uesugi Kenshin! ️

    It seems like they only publish it four times a year, so I don't feel motivated. You cannot enter outside of the specified period.

    It's a pity that the historical museum is only open for a certain period of time. The remains of the castle are only earthworks.

    Kisai Castle with pretty hydrangeas is the best spot for peaceful, fresh air walk with family. The hydrangeas here have bigger and beautiful petals. If you like macro photography, the hydrangeas here are the best.

    城のような建物に歴史的な価値はありません。中は郷土資料館のようですが休館中のようです。こちらの敷地から道向かいに唯一、土塁跡が残っています。

    図書館に隣接しています。 訪れた日は、閉まってましたが、不定期に模擬天守の中に入れるらしいです。

    ホントは平屋建てだった騎西城。 それなのにこんなものを造ってしまった昭和時代のおおらかさに乾杯!

    騎西にあるお城です。 中は郷土資料館のような感じになっています。 入館は無料ですが特定の日にしか入れないので注意が必要ですね。
