Good to know

  • One of few tombs open to public
  • Keyhole-shaped kofun
  • Built late fourth century
  • Clear view of downtown Osaka

Komuroyama is one of the few tombs that are open to the public. It was once privately owned, and the mound used for an orchard before being purchased by the city of Fujiidera and turned into a public park. A variety of trees, including persimmon, cherry, and plum, still cover the slopes and base of the mound. The kofun was built on top of a hill and offers a clear view of downtown Osaka.

Komuroyama is a keyhole-shaped kofun built toward the end of the fourth century. It is 10 meters high and covers an area of about 1 hectare.
