History

The shrine's origins date back to 1189 when Date Tomomune enshrined a kami from Tsurugaoka Hachimangu in a castle town near his residence. The name Kameoka derives from the legend that a sacred turtle appeared during the shrine's establishment. After several relocations, the shrine was moved to its current location in 1683 by Date Tamemura, the fourth daimyo of the Date domain.
