Goshō Shrine

鎌倉市材木座2丁目9−1

4.0(92)

A shrine located in Kamakura City, Kanagawa Prefecture. It was formed in 1908 through the merger of four other shrines, adopting its current name.

History

The founding date is unknown, and it was originally called 'Mishima Shrine.' In 1908, it was merged with four other shrines: 'Suwa Shrine,' 'Yakumo Shrine,' 'Konpira Jingu,' and 'Mime Myojin.' The name 'Goshō Shrine' was adopted because five shrines were combined. The main hall (honden) was relocated from the old Suwa Shrine, but it was destroyed by a landslide caused by the Great Kanto Earthquake and was rebuilt in 1931.

What visitors say

The shrine grounds feature many stone pagodas, stone tablets, komainu (lion-dog statues), and mikoshi (portable shrines), creating an atmosphere rich in history. Visitors climb a set of stairs to reach the worship hall. Goshuin (shrine seal stamps) are sometimes pre-written, and the grounds are also a stop on the Seven Lucky Gods pilgrimage.
