Our guide

Iwasaki Castle is a hill castle in the city of Nisshin, Aichi. It was built in the Sengoku period in Owari Province as a support castle for Shobata Castle. Our source says little more than that, so this page is short.

We have not checked what can be seen on the site today or a public-transport route, so look for local information before you go.
