Little is known of Sano Castle (佐野城, Sano-jō). It is mostly connected to its nearby castle, Karasawa Castle, both of which were next to Sano, the corresponding castle town for the two castles during the Edo period. The Sano Clan had previously built Karasawayama Castle, which had been established since the 1400s. In 1602, there was a great fire in Edo castle, which could be seen from Karasawayama Castle. The Sano clan sent their condolences to the Emperor. Some historians say that when the Emperor realised that Karasawayama Castle looked down on Edo, he told the Sano clan that there was a law against this. In the same year of the fire, 1602, the Sano clan, rebuilt another new castle at a lower point on the hill - this castle was named Sano Castle. Sano Castle itself only existed for a short period of time, and was a less substantial castle than its predecessor. It was built in 1602. However, after the clan moved there from their old castle, the clan became involved in the political conflict of the Shogunate and were expelled, like many other non hereditary lords in Kantō region (e.g. the Satomi clan and Minagawa clans). As a result of this, their lands were seized and they were forced to abandon it in 1614. It was unoccupied after that, and fell into ruin.

Mount Iwafune (岩船山, Iwafunesan, Iwafuneyama) is a mountain located in Tochigi City, Tochigi Prefecture (formerly Iwafune Town), in Northern Kanto, with an elevation of 172.7 meters. It is the southernmost peak of the Ashio Mountains. The origin of the characters used in the name—"boat" (舟) for the stone quarried here and the former town name, and "ship" (船) for the mountain name—is unclear. The surrounding area is designated as a nature conservation area (designated on July 19, 1977), where the name is written as "岩舟山" (Iwafuneyama). It has been a major sacred site, with Kōshō-ji Temple attracting the faith of people in the Eastern provinces. The mountain has a peculiar shape with steep cliffs, which has gradually changed due to quarrying of Iwafune stone since the Edo period. Since the late 1970s, the abandoned quarry site has been used for location shooting, including special effects scenes with explosions, taking advantage of its mystical landscape. During the Great East Japan Earthquake in March 2011, the western peak collapsed in a V-shape, and another part of the mountainside crumbled from a height of about 140 meters (no casualties or damage to houses). At the southeastern foot of the mountain is the site where Emperor Meiji once held an outdoor tea ceremony (nodate), and the surrounding area has been developed as Kabutoyama Park.
