Explore Kakegawa Castle Keep, a symbol of Kakegawa located a short 7-minute walk from Kakegawa Station. Originally built in the Muromachi period, the castle was significantly renovated by Kazutoyo Yamauchi, who constructed the keep and main gate. Reconstructed in 1994 using traditional methods, it's Japan's first authentic wooden castle keep. Visitors can enjoy panoramic views from the top floor. The admission fee is ¥410 for adults and ¥150 for children. Note that the keep may be under renovation, so check the latest information before visiting.
