Site of Jurakudai Villa

The Place of Jurong

Original Text

There was a residence built by Hideyoshi around neutral sales wisdom Koin, jurakudai, but it seems that it is not well understood what it was because it was demolished in ８ years after construction. Now, there is only a stone monument on the grounds of the elementary school. There are many remains of Heiankyo in the vicinity, so if you like history, you should take a walk.

It's just a stone pillar and a manual.

To be honest, I can't imagine Jurakudai, which was a powerful force alone, but there is a history of welcoming and responding to Emperor Goyozei, Jurakudai, built by Hideyoshi Toyotomi.

The Jurakudai site is located on the east side of the north gate of Ogishika Elementary School on Neutrikusa-dori. It is a rare castle in Kyoto built by Hideyoshi Toyotomi, but it is not yet visible and has a stone monument and a piece bill. Next to it is the ruins of the Ministry of Finance of Heiangu and the stone monuments and panels of the Karatsu Ogasawara clan.

　Jurakudai built Hideyoshi Toyotomi as a Tenka (manager and Lord of manor) as a place where he served as a government official in Kyoto, and later became Hidetsugu's residence, who handed over kanpaku. The whole picture is unknown because it was thoroughly destroyed after driving Hidetsugu to death and disappeared in eight years after construction. The stone monument is just standing. The stone monument in Kyoto is interesting and can follow the changes in history. Hideyoshi was at Myokenji Castle in front of Jurakudai, but the monument showing this site also stood along the street near the ANA Hotel.

A stone monument along the street.

There was a monument at the site of Jurakudi on Neutral Sail Street. If you don't pay attention, you'll probably pass by without notice. Jurakudi is a magnificent castle-style mansion built by Toyotomi Hideyoshi in 1587. It was one size larger than Nijo Castle, which is 600 meters east-west and 700 meters north-south, and there was a moat around it. In 1595, he expelled Hidetsugu on suspicion of rebellion and destroyed Jurakudai. Daitokuji Karamon and Myokakuji front gate are the relics. I thought it was a short period of time.
