History
The shrine is said to have been founded during the early Muromachi period, in the Eiroku era, when villages were obligated to enshrine the Grand Shrine of the Sun Goddess. In the early Edo period, during the Enpō era, the deities were transferred to the current location. Following the Separation of Shinto and Buddhism edict in the early Meiji period, it was designated as a village shrine. Its subsidiary shrine, Ryu Shrine, is listed in the Engishiki (a 10th-century codex) from the mid-Heian period, suggesting it may have been founded at an even earlier date.
