The castle is located on a 50.6m hill overlooking the current Shigei East Port, and has five tiers of enclosures that have been relatively well preserved, with a warrior's run remaining. At the top of the hill, which seems to be the main citadel of the castle, there is a Ryuosha shrine, as befits a naval castle, and to the southwest of the castle there is a Hachiman shrine, which is a guardian deity of evil spirits.
