Shimazu Munenobu was the 23rd head of the [[Shimazu clan]], and the sixth [[Edo period]] lord of [[Satsuma han]].
Munenobu was the eldest son of [[Shimazu Tsugutoyo]]; his mother was a daughter of the [[Shibuya clan]]. He was raised as an adopted child of Tsugutoyo's wife [[Take-hime]] (an adopted daughter of [[Shogun]] [[Tokugawa Tsunayoshi]]), and was as a result granted the privilege of using the [[Matsudaira clan|Matsudaira]] name.
Upon his father's retirement in [[1746]], Munenobu became head of the clan, and of Satsuma domain. He struggled with a heavy household debt, and attempted to run the domain frugally. He died young, however, at age 22, in [[Kagoshima]], after less than three years as lord. He was succeeded by his younger brother [[Shimazu Shigetoshi]].
