[Description]
Oshima Castle is a flatland castle located in Matsukawa Town, Ina Gun, Nagano Province. It is said that the castle was built by Mr. Katagiri (Mr. Oshima) during the end of Heian Period.
When entering Sengoku Period, Mr. Oshima was destroyed by Takeda Shingen. After that, [Akiyama Nobutomo], the competent vassal of Shingen was ordered to renovate the castle to strengthen the power in Ina Gun.
After Shingen died, Katsuyori inherited Mr. Takeda and he appointed [Takeda Nobukado] as the castle officer. In March Tensho 10 year (1582), Oda and Tokugawa joint army attacked Ina Gun, and the castles in Ina were occupied one after another. Nobukado surrendered without even fighting. He opened the castle and escaped to Kai Country.
After that, Oshima Castle became abandoned. Nowadays, Taijo Park is built on the current castle ruins, and soil, bending wheels, moats are still left.
