Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to restorate "Kotensyu" in Yonago castle. Yonagp castle was built by Hiroie Kikkawa and Kotensyu was built in about 1596. But it was destroyed in Meiji period, so there are no existing buildings now. There are some historical pictures drawn in late Edo period. So we can know about some details of Kotensyu. Kotensyu shows the appearance of Early Borogata Tensyu, and there are no remained Castle Towers built before 1600, so it is important for studying Borogata Tensyu to restration Kotensyu in Yonago Castle.
