Imamiya Shrine
さくら市馬場43
Located in Sakura City, Tochigi Prefecture, the shrine grounds feature a large Ginkgo biloba tree designated as a city natural monument, with an age exceeding 600 years.
History
Founded in 1060 CE, it is traditionally said that a branch spirit of Utsunomiya Myojin was enshrined here as the guardian deity of Katsuyama Castle. The shrine was relocated from Katsuyama Castle to its current site in 1300 CE and was classified as a Kosha (village shrine) in 1872 CE. Maintenance and improvements have continued with each imperial accession since then.
