History

It is said that worship began on this site, where people lived during the Jomon period, and that it took the form of a shrine in the late Heian period. Originally, it enshrined Kasuga-sha (the Kasuga deity), but since Minamoto no Yoritomo prayed for victory while en route to the conquest of Oshu, Hachiman Ookami became the main enshrined deity.
