Fukuchiyama Castle Folk Museum

Fukuchiyama Castle was originally a fortress of the powerful Yokoyama family who lived in this area. Akechi Mitsuhide, who subjugated Tamba, collected frames from the original construction to rebuild the castle. The castle tower was dismantled under the law abolishing castles enacted during the Meiji Period. In 1986, it was rebuilt as a folk museum to exhibit historical materials relating to the castle and Fukuchiyama, from ancient to modern times.
