[Castle name]
Urado Castle
Urado castle was the base of Tosa’s Sengoku daimyo (Japanese territorial lord in the Sengoku period), Motochika and Morichika Chosokabe.
[Explanation]
Chosokabe-shi’s original base was Oko castle, but they moved their base to Urado castle after defeating Motoyama-shi.
This castle was used until Morichika Chosokabe’s period right after the battle of Sekigahara. However when Chosokabe-shi became subject to Kaieki, Kazutoyo Yamauchi became the owner and built Kochi castle instead, so Urado castle was demolished and only a small part remains now.
