[Introduction to the Contents]
This is a story of a feudal domain in Takatori-cho, the central part of present-day Nara prefecture.
In 1640, Iemasa Uemura, a hatamoto (direct retainers of the bakufu), became a feudal lord with an additional amount and continued to be ruled by the Uemura clan until the end of the Edo period. It was a relatively stable domain with no family troubles or large-scale uprisings.
The castle is Takatori Castle. It is said to be located at the highest place in the country. It is one of the three Daisen Castles along with Bitchu Matsuyama Castle in Okayama Prefecture and Iwamura Castle in Gifu Prefecture.
It is also selected as one of the 100 Japanese Meijo.
