Sometime in the Nanboku-cho Period, Nagara Saburo Noritsuna—grandson of Akamatsu Norimura (Enshin)—built Tsurui-jo Castle 433 m above sea level atop Tsurui Shiroyama. Although only a handful of the castle ruins remains today, the path up the mountain has been cared for, and every autumn the Tsurui Shiroyama Hiking Festival is held.
