Kawate Castle (川手城 Kawate-jō) was a castle that existed between the Nanboku-chō period and the Sengoku period. Its ruins are located in the present-day city of Gifu Gifu Prefecture Japan. An alternative way to write its name in Japanese is 革手城 which has the same pronunciation. It replaced Nagamori Castle as the base of operations for the area and served as home for regional shugo until Saitō Dōsan switched to Inabayama Castle.
