Osaka Castle

Osaka Castle (大坂城 or 大阪城) is a Japanese castle located in the city of Osaka, and one of Japan's most famous landmarks.

History

In 1582, while the castle was still under construction, the Kakushiba ikki members Fujibayashi Naoe and Yasuke infiltrated its grounds, eliminated three samurai daisho, looted the Peasant Clothes from the castle's treasure chest, and climbed atop the tenshu to oversee the land.[1]

Commissioned by Toyotomi Hideyoshi,[2] the castle's keep was completed in 1583, and the rest of the fortress was completed in 1588. After Hideyoshi's death, his son Hideyori, wife Yodo-gimi, and their immediate relatives settled into the castle. By 1600, Tokugawa Ieyasu promised an income to the Toyotomi clan but, as time passed, relations soured. From 1614 to 1615, Ieyasu led a siege of the castle, effectively ending the Toyotomi clan. In 1620, the castle was reconstructed and came under the Tokugawa shogunate's control.[3]
