Sakaki Shrine
The Takada clan was abolished in 1871 by the Meiji government's abolition of feudal domains and establishment of prefectures act. The vassals of Yasumasa Hanso Sakakibara, which are said to be the Tokugawa Four Heavenly Kings, are enshrined here. The shrine widely solicits donations. The Sorin museum on the shrine grounds exhibits Sakakibara generational relics.
