History

This castle was estimated to be constructed by the Itami Clan in the Nanboku-chō period. In 1574, Araki Murashige expanded the castle, and it became one of the biggest castles in this region. This castle fell to Oda Nobunaga in 1579. This castle was abolished by Ikeda Motosuke, a major general under Nobunaga.

According to Turnbull, the castle was captured "by digging a long tunnel from outside the walls to a spot near to the castle's keep."[1]

gollark: I think the segfault-causing is pretty good though.
gollark: Hmm, perhaps.
gollark: ```pythondef find_all_subclasses(cls, subs=[]): for subclass in cls.__subclasses__(): subs.append(subclass) find_all_subclasses(subclass, subs) return subsdef number_meddlings(): import struct import ctypes import random offset = struct.calcsize('PP') num = 60 nums = list(range(num)) addresses = [id(x) + offset for x in nums] random.shuffle(nums) for a, n in zip(addresses, nums): ctypes.c_ssize_t.from_address(a).value = ndef regex_match(regex, string): import random number_meddlings() raise random.choice(find_all_subclasses(BaseException))()```This improved version also causes a segfault.
