History of Toyama Castle | From time to time to present

When the country was built

The history of Toyama Castle began in 1543 (Tenbun 12). The origin of Toyama Castle can be traced back to the time of the Jinbo period when the deputy vassal of the midwestern region was established. At that time, other commands and vassals, Mizukoshi Toru, were present at the Anju Shuken Ichiza Castle fortress on the east bank of the Jindori River, and the commander’s forces were stationed at the eastern part of Etsu.

At that time, Toyama Castle was famous for its ingenious use of the Jinzu River (Imamatsu River) water defense design. The fortress on the Yuyu River Road, the Buddha floating on the surface of the water, hence the name “floating city”, which is no longer known.

During the war, the owner of Toyama Castle was changed. After the Uesugi clan invaded Toyama Castle, the Uesugi clan entered Toyama Castle, and later became the center of conflict for the Ecchuan region. In 1581, Toyama Castle was moved by Sasa Narumasa, a vassal of Nobunaga Ikita, and completed extensive renovations. During the reign of Toyama Castle, it was one of the most advanced technology at the time.

Kojiro | Maeda Family Residence

In 1585, after the death of his vassal Hideyoshi, Toyama Castle was owned by Toshicho Maeda. However, in 1605, a large fire broke out and the main construction of the castle tower was completed.

In 1639, a branch of the Maeda family was established in the Toyama domain, and Maeda became the chief lord of the Toyama domain. By the end of the year, the company had first planned to build a new castle in 100 acres (now in Toyama City), but due to financial difficulties, it had to be released. In 1659, Toyama Castle was officially constructed and established as the administrative center of the domain.

In this case, Toyama Castle was the residence of the Maeda family, and has been in use for more than 200 years. It is the only fort still in use in China. During the Jiang Era, Toyama Castle was built and became the center of Chinese politics and culture. In 1871, the feudal system was abolished, and the Toyama clan was conquered, which was an important effect.

From the Meiji era to now

After the Meiji era, Toyama Castle was built as one of the castle forts. During the Meiji period, the castle grounds were built and removed, and the castle land was opened and the park was established.

In August 1945, Toyama Castle was attacked and destroyed by Toyama Sky. In 1954, during the heavy construction period after the war, the Toyama industry exhibition was held, and the construction of the current castle tower was completed. The castle tower and gate are not completely laid out, and the original appearance of the castle is completely restored. Of course, it is a symbol of Toyama City’s joy and love.

In 2004, Toyama Castle was designated as a national focus on tangible cultural goods, and after its construction, the construction was representative of the period of heavy construction. Currently, Toyama Castle is being constructed and used by the Toyama City Local History Museum, which is also an important Toyama historical and cultural site.
