Castles & Ruins

Saga Prefecture's feudal history is preserved through a diverse collection of fortifications ranging from ancient mountain strongholds to coastal Edo-period keeps.

The list also includes the seventh-century Kii Castle ruins, an early example of a Korean-style mountain fortress, and the hilltop remains of Sasayama Castle in nearby Kurume.
