As spearhead of the Meiji government forces, they were willing to Nakasendo.
However, it has been arrested in Shimosuwa as "false government forces".

魁塚は、赤報隊隊長 相楽総三以下幹部8名の墓です。
慶応4年3月3日に彼らはここで処刑されました。

明治政府軍の先鋒として中山道を江戸へ進んでいましたが、「偽官軍」として下諏訪で逮捕されました。
彼らは、明治政府の許可を貰って「租税半額」と宣伝して進んでいましたが、明治政府には資金がありませんでした。
そこで政府は、宣伝を密かに取り消して彼らを逮捕したのです。

塚は、彼らの墓として 明治3年に建てられました。
汚名を着せられた、相楽の孫と関係者たちは奔走して名誉回復を果たしました。
キャッシュは塚の近くに設置しました。
