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: Robotics progress and increasingly good tracking stuff might actually make riots and stuff not work fairly soon.
gollark: Brevity good, verbosity bad.
gollark: Are you... complaining about the anthropic principle or something...?
gollark: This seems really implausible? The only operation I can see a GPU doing for photos is scaling, for which the algorithms are pretty standard. Text rendering is trickier, though. Fingerprinting based on quirks in that with browser canvases exists, but I doubt this works on a low-resolution paper and it'll not tell you the GPU directly.
