History
Tradition holds that the shrine was founded in 1171 CE (Jōan 1). From the medieval period onward, it served as the head shrine (Sōsha) of the Yamabe Estate in the ancient province of Kazusa. During the Tenshō era, the shrine buildings were constructed with the support of the Kiso clan. After being destroyed by a typhoon, they were rebuilt in 1711 CE (Kōtoku 1). In 1872 CE (Meiji 5), the name was changed from Goshu Dai Gongen to Goshu Shrine.
