Kondo Kageharu's Grave


This is the grave of Kondo Kageharu, who was the lord of Kutsukake Castle in Owari.  Kondo Kageharu (?-1560) was the ninth lord of Kutsukake Castle and served under the Imagawa during the Battle of Okehazama.  Kageharu was killed right after Imagawa Yoshimoto's defeat at the Battle of Okehazama.  Nobunaga then granted Yanada Masatsuna Kutsukake Castle for his merits at Okehazama.  The grave is located not far from the Kutsukake Castle ruins in Aichi Prefecture.

Tenka no tame!
