Shibata Castle, located in Shibata, Niigata Prefecture, Japan, is a historic Japanese castle that dates back to the Edo period. Originally constructed in 1598 by Mizoguchi Hidekatsu, a loyal retainer of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the castle played a significant role in the region's history. Although much of the original structure was destroyed over time, significant restoration efforts have been made, and a few reconstructed buildings now stand on the site. Visitors can explore the castle grounds, which include remnants of the original stone walls, moats, and the reconstructed three-story yagura (turret).
