is a castle located in Kameoka, Kyoto Prefecture, Japan. It guarded the northwest passage into Kyoto for nearly three hundred years.
The castle was built by Oda Nobunaga's vassal Akechi Mitsuhide because he needed a front base to conquer Tanba region. He set out for Honnà Â-ji (Honnà Â-ji Incident) from the castle in 1582. After the Meiji period revolution, all the remaining structures of the castle were removed or destroyed.
In 2019, Akechi Mistuhide`s statue was built in the castle.
Ten'on-kyà  (天æÂ©é·), the administrative headquarters of the Oomoto religion, is located adjacent to the castle.
