The Turbulent History
of Osaka Castle
Ishiyama Honganji Era
In 1496 a high-ranking monk of the
Joudoshinshu sect had a monastic
residence built nearthe site of present-day
Osaka Castle. This eventually grew into a
large temple known as Ishiyama (Osaka)
Honganji. The temple boasted great
power and influence until
1580 when it yielded
to Nobunaga Oda
during his campaign
of national unifica-
tion and was burned
to the ground.

Osaka Castle
under Toyotomi
After the death of Nobunaga Oda,
Hideyoshi Hashiba (Toyotomi) took control
of political affairs and began construction
of a castle on the site of Ishiyama Honganji
in 1583. He built a castle befitting the
permanent residence ofthe ruler of
Japan. However, after his death,
political control moved to the
Tokugawas and the castle fell
during the Summer War in
Osaka 1615.
Reconstruction by the
"--`!!!Ir.- ••• ..,<-...•• _ Tokugawa Shogunate
By command ofthe second shogun, Hide-
tada, reconstruction of Osaka Castle began
in 1620. It was a large-scale reconstruction
thattook 10 years to complete. In 1665 the
Main Tower was destroyed by a lightning
strike. However the castle played a major
role as the baseforthe Shogunate`s control
`,~. ? ofWestern Japan. Many build-
::. , ings were later destroyed by
fires during the turbu-
lent transition to
_. imperial
restoration.
Reconstruction of the
Main Tower in the Showa Period
After the Meiji period, the site of Osaka
Castle was used by the army. During this
time, in 1931, public efforts and enthusiasm
brought about the reconstruction of the
Main Tower, and it was included in the list
of Registered Cultural Properties of Japan
in 1997. The area around the Castle was
damaged during the bombing raids of
World War 11, but resto red and turned into a
historie site park afterthe war.
