History
The shrine originated when Emperor Chouai and Empress Jingu set up a temporary court and received an imperial decree from Tenjin during their journey, leading to its name Isawaka Shrine. The shrine buildings were constructed by the Kono clan during the Meio era. Subsequent reconstructions and constructions were carried out by figures such as Minamoto no Yoriyoshi and Matsudaira Sada-naga. In 1956 (Showa 31), the main hall was designated as an Important Cultural Property, and in 1967 (Showa 42), the entire complex received additional designation.
