About Reisen'in
Chiyohime was Tokugawa Iemitsu's daughter with his concubine, Ofuri no Kata, daughter of Oka Shigemasa, also known as Jishō'in. After Ofuri died, Chiyohime was adopted by Iemitsu's concubine, Oman no Kata (1624-1711), later Keishoin. She was married to Tokugawa Mitsutomo, daimyō of Owari Domain, in 1640, when she was 2 years and 6 months old and Mitsutomo was fourteen. In 1652, she constructed a mausoleum for her mother named Jishō'in Mausoleum, which is now located in Edo-Tokyo Open Air Architectural Museum. She died in 1699 and was given the name Reisen'in (霊仙院).
