Asano Tadayoshi

Commander of Shingū Castle · Karō of the Hiroshima domain, commander of Mihara Castle

Asano Tadayoshi (1546-?) was a samurai of the Asano house and first cousin of Asano Nagamasa. After Sekigahara, he was sent to Shingū, in Kii Province, where he governed the Kumano region and began construction of Shingū Castle (Tankaku-jō). When the main branch of the Asano was transferred to Hiroshima in 1619, he left Shingū to become commander of Mihara Castle, founding the Asano of Mihara line, which held the castle for twelve generations.

Histoire & patrimoine

From Kumano to the Inland Sea

Installed at Shingū in the aftermath of Sekigahara, Asano Tadayoshi held the mountainous and coastal region of Kumano, at the mouth of the Kumano River, for the main branch of the Asano. There he began work on the castle on Tankaku Hill. His departure in 1619 for Mihara, on the Seto Inland Sea, left the construction work to the Mizuno; the Mihara municipal bulletin recalls that sailors from Kumano accompanied him as pilots and settled in the town.
