Samurai HousesSamurai Houses Former Residence and Garden of Lord HottaFormer Residence and Garden of Lord Hotta
Sakura was once the site of a castle built in the early years of the Edo period. Sakura Castle was the only castle in Chiba Prefecture to be chosen as one of Japan’s 100 most famous castles.Many reminders of the old castle can be found in Sakura Castle Park, including the remains of the tenshukaku or central tower and the dry moats.
The Sakura Domain was headed by hereditary daimyo feudal lords who held influential positions in the Shogunate, such as members of the council of elders. The town around Sakura Castle prospered for generations as a castle town.
