Nagahama Castle, also known as Nagahama-jō, is a hirashiro, a type of Japanese castle built on plains. It is situated in the city of Nagahama, in the Shiga Prefecture of Japan. This location offers visitors a chance to explore a significant historical site while also enjoying the natural beauty of the surrounding area.
Today, Nagahama Castle serves as a park. While most of the castle lies in ruins, the tenshu, or keep, was reconstructed using concrete in 1983. This reconstructed part of the castle now houses a museum dedicated to the city of Nagahama. Visitors can explore the museum to learn more about the city's history and culture.
