# Takatsuki Domain

Takatsuki Domain (高槻藩, Takatsuki-han) was a feudal domain under the Tokugawa shogunate of Edo period Japan, located in Settsu Province in what is now the northern portion of modern-day Osaka Prefecture. It was centered around Takatsuki Castle, which is located in what is now the city of Takatsuki, Osaka.

## History

During the Sengoku period, Takatsuki was ruled by Takayama Ukon, who served Oda Nobunaga and Toyotomi Hideyoshi. Following Hideyoshi's persecution of the Kirishitan religion, the area was awarded as a 30,000 koku domain to Shinjo Naomori. Following the 1600 Battle of Sekigahara, he was dispossessed. In 1615, Naito Nobumasa was transferred to Takatsuki from Nagahama Domain in Ōmi Province and his kokudaka was set at 40,000 koku by the Tokugawa shogunate. Naito Nobumasa repaired Takatsuki Castle and its jōkamachi before being reassigned to Fushimi Castle in Yamashiro Province in 1617. The domain then passed through a large number of changes in control over a short period of time. Toki Sadayoshi was transferred from Moriya in Shimōsa Province in 1617 with the kokudaka of the domain reduced to 20,000 koku, but his son Toki Moriyuki was reduced to hatamoto status and returned to Moriya in 1619. He was replaced by Matsudaira Ienobu from Kasahara in Mikawa Province, but he was transferred to Sakura Domain in Shimōsa in 1635. Okabe Nobukatsu ruled from 1635 to his transfer to Kishiwada Domain in Izumi Province in 1640 and the domain was reassigned to Matsudaira Ienobu's second son, Matsudaira Yasunobu until his transfer to Sasayama Domain in Tanba Province in 1649. The domain then went to Nagai Naokiyo, who transferred his seat from Nagaoka in Yamashiro Province. His descendants would continue to rule Takatsuki until the Meiji Restoration.
In 1871, due to the abolition of the han system, Takatsuki Domain became “Takatsuki Prefecture”, and was later incorporated into Osaka Prefecture.

## Holdings at the end of the Edo period

As with most domains in the han system, Takatsuki Domain consisted of several discontinuous territories calculated to provide the assigned kokudaka, based on periodic cadastral surveys and projected agricultural yields.
* Settsu Province
** 2 villages in Sumiyoshi District
** 29 villages in Shimashimo District
** 41 villages in Shimakami District
