Traveler highlights
Takeda Shrine stands on the former site of Tsutsujigasaki Castle in Kofu and enshrines Takeda Shingen. Moats, earthworks and stone walls from the former residence remain around the shrine. Takeda Nobutora built the residence here in 1519, and three generations—Nobutora, Shingen and Katsuyori—used it as the Takeda clan’s base. Paths and trees give the historic grounds a quiet atmosphere. The treasure hall displays armor, swords and other artifacts connected with the clan, offering a glimpse of the Sengoku period. Cherry blossoms in spring and autumn leaves in late fall add seasonal color. A visit can combine worship with a walk through the site and the history of Kofu’s castle town.
