Toishi castle is the mountain castle that was in Ueno, Ueda City now in Nagano Prefecture. Also referred to as Tameishi castle under another name.
The timing of the castle is unknown, but it is said that it was built as a castle of Mr. Masuda in the neighboring Sanada Township.

Sanada is from a sea clan, and the Sea of the Okinawa broke up to Ueno Country in the “Battle of Unnotaira” which broke out between Nobutora Takeda, Yoshikiyo Murakami, Yorishige Suwa and Munetsuna Unno. The grinding castle became a castle governed by Yoshikiyo Murakami, who was appointed as a castle owner such as Mitsuuji and Yamada Kokusei.
