Kakunodate Castle
Kakunodate Castle (角館城, Kakunodate-jō), also known as Asakura Castle and Ryugasaki Castle, was a mountaintop castle (yamashiro) located in Kakunodate, Akita Prefecture, Japan. Its roots can be traced to when Moriyasu Tozawa was given the area in 1590, though it may have been constructed prior to this. Due to a Shogunal decree that each domain was to retain only one castle, it was demolished in 1620. Only ruins remain at the site on Mount Furushiro.

gollark: I'm imagining all the evil stuff I could make stuff do.
gollark: You could call it "5.15". Probably shouldn't. But could.
gollark: Add and subtract are some kind of compose, I forgot which way round, and concat is... some kind of arrowy operator? It returns a new function which runs two functions on the same input and returns two outputs.
