History

Located in the Owari clan's domain, Hosokute-juku was established as a mountaintop post town in 1610. The route between the two neighboring post towns, Ōkute-juku and Mitake-juku, was long and difficult, so the town was built up as a resting point between the two places.[1] It contains the family temple of the Toki clan, Mino Province's guardian.
