Built in 1608, razed to the ground after just 7 years by law: one castle per domain.

A mountain castle of the Edo period, seat of the Kikkawa domain (a branch of the Mōri) until it was dismantled after only seven years. It is castle no. 74 of the 日本100名城 (the hundred famous castles of Japan). You reach it by the Iwakuni ropeway from Kikkō Park, at the foot of the mountain, or on foot along a trail of about 2 km.
