This location is the site of the battle of Kanagawa, the largest field battle to have ever taken place in the Kanto region. The fierce battle took place on June 18 and 19, 1582 along the Kannagawa River on the border between Musashi (Tokyo and Kanagawa) and Ueno (Gunma) between Takikawa Kazumasu, lord of Ueno Umabashi Castle, and forces led by Hojo Ujikuni, lord of Musashi Hachigata Castle, and Hojo Ujinao, lord of Odawara Castle. The battle was also known as the “Battle of Kanakubohara" due to being fought in and around Kanakubo and Bisado areas of Kamisato-town.
