The original castle was built by Oda Nobunaga's son, Nobukane, and was completely destroyed in battle. The current layout comes from Todo Takatora and there is a statue of him in the center of the ruins. Although the second castle was torn down, the moat and some walls remain and one of the turrets has been reconstructed.

上野英三郎博士とハチ公
Hisai was the birthplace of Hidesaburō Ueno, a professor at Tokyo University later known for his loyal dog Hachiko. After Ueno died suddenly while teaching, for almost ten years Hachiko continued to walk to the train station every afternoon and wait for the professor to come home from work. This statue just outside the station commemorates Ueno's birthplace and the bond he shared with his loyal companion.
