Mitsuba Shrine
柳川市三橋町高畑323−1
Situated at the onigata (demon gate) position of Yanagawa Castle, this shrine enshrines three deities: Tachibana Muneshige and two others. The ro-mon (tower gate) was modeled after the Yo-mon (Yang Gate) of Nikko Toshogu, while the surrounding corridor was modeled after Itsukushima Shrine.
History
This shrine enshrines three figures: Tachibana Muneshige, the first lord of Yanagawa Domain; his wife, Inchiyo; and his father-in-law, Tozawa Michiyuki. It was founded in 1826 by Tachibana Kanki, who relocated the enshrined deities from the previously cramped Ume-dake-gu to the current location. In 1875, it was designated as a Kenja (prefectural shrine).

What visitors say
The shrine grounds are spacious and well-maintained, offering opportunities to enjoy seasonal nature and feed the koi carp. Seasonal events featuring hydrangeas and wind chimes are held throughout the year. Visitors can also obtain Goshuin (shrine seal stamps) featuring cut-paper designs and draw from a variety of Omikuji (fortune slips). The approach path is long, and since there are many tourist attractions in the surrounding area, it is suitable for a brief stop during a stroll.
