Hamamatsu Castle
Hamamatsu Domain (浜松藩 , Hamamatsu-han ) was a Japanese domain of the Edo period , located in Tōtōmi Province . It was centered on what is now Hamamatsu Castle in what is now the city of Hamamatsu in Shizuoka Prefecture .
Hamamatsu was the residence of Tokugawa Ieyasu for much of his early career, and Hamamatsu Castle was nicknamed "Promotion Castle" (出世城 , Shussei-jō ) due to Ieyasu's promotion to shōgun . The domain was thus considered a prestigious posting, and was seen as a stepping stone in a daimyō ' s rise to higher levels with the administration of the Tokugawa shogunate , such rōjū or wakadoshiyori .
The domain had a population of 3324 samurai in 776 households at the start of the Meiji period. The domain maintained its primary residence (kamiyashiki ) in Edo at Toranomon until the An'ei (1772–1781) period, and at Nihonbashi-Hamacho until the Meiji period [ 1]
Holdings at the end of the Edo period
As with most domains in the han system , Hamamatsu Domain consisted of several discontinuous territories calculated to provide the assigned kokudaka , based on periodic cadastral surveys and projected agricultural yields.[ 2] [ 3]
