Hayashida Domain

It was centered around the Hayashida jin'ya which was located in what is now the city of Himeji, Hyōgo and was controlled by the tozama daimyō Takebe clan throughout all of its history.

[1][2][3] Takebe Mitsushige was the 700 koku Amagasaki gundai under Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and was married to an adopted daughter of Ikeda Terumasa.

Their son, Takebe Masanaga, fought at the side of Ikeda Terumasa's sons at the Siege of Osaka from 1614-1615, and was rewarded by being made daimyō of Amagasaki Domain, an honor which he unusually shared with Ikeda Shigetoshi, with each having a kokudaka of 10,000 koku.

The final daimyō, Takebe Masayo, served in the guard of Prince Kachō Hirotsune in 1868 and supported the Meiji government in the Boshin War.

The lecture hall of the han school survives, and is a Himeji City Important Cultural Property.
