Grave of Gamo Jisato

Original Text

Although he was a master general who made the foundation of Aizu and was placed at a glance by Oda Nobunaga and Hideyoshi Toyotomi, the grave was quietly built in the precincts of Kotokuji Temple and I felt lonely.

I knew it immediately because there was a prominent monument on the main street. There were many stone monuments and signboards before arriving at the main body of the tomb.

It is the grave of Gamo Ujisato, a Sengoku warlord who served Oda Nobunaga. It was next to the main hall of Kotokuji Temple, which is located on the east back of Shinmei-dori. Gamo Ujisato is said to have a deep connection with Aizu, such as building Tsuruga Castle and maintaining the castle town, and promoting the lacquer ware industry that is handed down to the present. I thought the tomb of the Gorinto was rare.
