The striking black-and-white three-turreted donjon (main keep) was completed around 1595, earning the nickname Karasu-j艒 (Crow Castle). You can climb steep steps all the way to the top, with impressive views and historical displays on each level. Don't miss the recently restored tsukimi yagura (moon-viewing pavilion).
