About
Reconstruction of a 16th-century castle housing a history museum and observation deck.
Destroyed by the atomic bomb and rebuilt in the 1950s, this five-story white keep presents the region's feudal history. The surrounding park and fortified walls remain open for free strolls, even when the castle interior is closed for renovation.
