The Last Commander-in-Chief of the Combined Fleet
Jisaburo Ozawa was born in Takanabe-cho, Miyazaki Prefecture in 1886 as the second son of a former Takanabe feudal retainer. Later to become the last Commander-in-Chief of the Combined Fleet as a Vice Admiral of the Navy, Jisaburo spent his youth studying in his birthplace in the Takanabe area. An American military historian described him as "a masterful admiral with scientific leadership suited to modern warfare," and he was a man of great analytical ability and decisiveness.

Takanabe, a Town of History
Known as the "Town of Culture and Education," Takanabe has been a castle town of the Takanabe Domain, producing many remarkable individuals throughout its long history. The most famous of these is Taneshige Akizuki, the 7th lord of the Takanabe Domain. He was the elder brother of Yozan Uesugi and the person whom Yozan respected the most.
