Yodo castle
The strategic location of the castle figured in the 1582 Battle of Yamazaki.[1]
During the 1868 Battle of Toba–Fushimi, the master of Yodo changed his allegiance from the Shogunate to Imperial forces, going as far as closing his gate and refusing protection to the retreating army of the shōgun Tokugawa Yoshinobu.
