Shiroishi Castle, famous for its cherry blossoms, was located in the center of Shiroishi City (Mashioka Park).
As the southern key point of the Sendai Domain, the castle became the residence of the Katakura clan, a chief vassal of the Date family, after the Battle of Sekigahara, and remained there for over 260 years until the Meiji Restoration.
The castle was dismantled in 1874, but in 1995, in memory of the great deeds of Katakura Kojuro Kagetsuna, who was famous as the protector of Date Masamune, the castle was rebuilt.
Shiroishi Castle is one of only five wooden castles in Japan.
