Matsumoto Castle, View from “Kuromon” black gate Live Cam

Watch the Matsumoto Castle live webcam from the "Kuromon" black gate in Nagano Prefecture, Japan. The HD view shows the castle’s historic architecture, the wide moat and the fortress façade by Honmaru Garden.

Matsumoto Castle is a National Treasure of Japan. Built in the 16th century, it is one of twelve castles in the country with Tenshu-style architecture, with external stone walls and wooden interiors still intact. Its black exterior is the reason it is often called the "Crow Castle". The camera also looks across parts of Matsumoto Castle Park, including its gardens and walking paths.
