Seongshan Park
A stretch of Mt. Oshita at an altitude of 410m is the site of Miharu Castle. In the first year of Eishō (1504), it is said to have been built by the Sengoku daimyōda Yoshiaki [Yoshiaki]. During the Edo period, it became the residence of the Akita clan of the Miharu Domain, but the building was demolished after the Meiji Restoration. The Honmaru remains as a park. The front gate of the former Sanchun Domain Shinsho was relocated down the park, and is now used as the school gate of Sanchun Elementary School.
