Summary

| Description |
English: An old Torreya Nut Tree (Torreya Nucifera) at Nagoya Castle is located close to the Nishinomaru-enokida Gate to the north. Its height is 16 metres and eight metres at the base. It is over 600 years old and was already there when the castle was constructed. This is the only government-designated natural monument in Nagoya. Damaged by the air raids of 1945, the tree fortunately regained its viability. Tokugawa Yoshinao, the first lord of the castle, is said to have decorated his dinner tray with torreya nuts from this tree before going into battle in Osaka, and later for New Year's celebrations. |
