A summary

It is a castle of Kubota feudal lord Satake. I am called the Yadomi Castle, root of a kudzu Castle. I was able to be called "Akita Castle" concerning land, but the location is together another castle with Akita castle (I got tired come) where Dewa Kokufu was put in the ancient times.

There was a few it, and, in a castle on a hill built in the branch Nibetsu River left bank of the Omono River, the Mt. Akira God in Hodono-mura Kubota (しんめいやま, meters above the sea level 40m), in Ishigaki, it was served fieldwork in the top in a fundus and it could be built and did a palace called a from study with substitute and I built eight oars and was able to line up in the on base without having the castle tower. Ishigaki hesitates not to be it in the Shogunate, and even if I can fold it, it is said when there was not the person who was familiar with the making of Ishigaki, but that the construction of a castle method that originally I do not use Ishigaki for in the eastern country including the former territory Hitachi country of Satake was common is raised. In any case I use Yamakawa Numazawa skillfully and plan defense, and Mizubori and yen Kuo-type castles style of the pilgrimage around the thirty-three holy places in the Kinki district is adopted, too.

The building in the castle was almost destroyed by fire by a big fire of the (1880) in 1880, and most of the moat were filled up by a process of the city rebuilding, too and changed into the government office street. The whole area where there was Kubota Castle becomes Chiaki Park, and Akita citizen of the prefecture hall and Akita municipal institution center library Akinori building, Masakichi Hirano art museum are got ready now. For a building, the leader guard station which escaped from the above-mentioned big fire alone exists, and this Marushin arms corner oar, a main enclosure front gate are rebuilt.

Structure

I levelled the most high place of the Mt. Akira God and assumed it a main enclosure, and a main enclosure palace and the government affairs place which were the house of the feudal lord were put here. A front gate (one ノ gate), a rear gate, the obi gay quarters gate, a small back gate, five places of doorways called the side door mouth were established to the surroundings.

I assumed the land where had low one step of the main enclosure East the outworks of a castle, and a government office of the Shogunate in charge of finance, a border government office, the House of prayer place comfort, a time bell, Kinzo, a stable were put.

There were outermost outworks to surround the north / the east / the south of the outworks of a castle, and a chief vassal mansion was put. I call lower Zhongcheng, the northeast a mountain ノ hand (bill Kamimachi) in upper Zhongcheng, the southern part in the eastern part. Hachimanyama in the west (the northwest of the main enclosure) of the mountain ノ hand was included in outermost outworks, too, but small Yahata Corporation / Inari Corporation / 別当寺金乗院 was put not a chief vassal mansion.

I surrounded a main enclosure / the outworks of a castle with Uchibori and surrounded the outermost outworks in an outside moat. Furthermore, there was a north circle in the north side, and a barn and a granary for unhulled rice were put very much. Arms storehouse was put in 捨曲輪 which I was sandwiched in between the western inside and outside moat and became in the shape of an island.

A school and the mansion of the chief vassal were arranged in a circle, and the mansion of the low-class vassal was posted in the domain called "an inner town" of the circumference the inside. The merchant-cho was called "outside town" (I wait), and I was posted in the west of the castle across Asahikawa. A temple was installed in the west intensively in the watches of the night of the outside town.
