Takanabe Domain (高鍋藩, Takanabe-han) was a feudal domain under the Tokugawa shogunate of Edo period Japan, in what is now central Miyazaki Prefecture. It was centered around Takanabe Castle and was ruled by the tozama daimyō Akizuki clan for all of its history.[1][2][3] In its early years, it was called Takarabe Domain (財部藩) after the location of its original seat.
