For the samurai by the same name who died in 1335, see Suwa Yorishige (Nanboku).
Suwa Yorishige (諏訪頼重?)(1516-1542) was lord of Kuwabara castle when it was attacked by Takeda Shingen in 1542. Suwa surrendered and was escorted to Takeda's capital at Kōfu under peaceful pretexts, but was then forced to commit suicide.
