The origins of the shrine are unknown, but ink inscriptions dating to 1580 CE (Tensho 8) have been confirmed. Originally known as Hakusan Daigongen, it is said that the enshrined deity was replaced at some point from Hakusan Himemi (the goddess of Mount Hiei) to Izanami-no-Kami.

What visitors say
This shrine makes a strong impression with its unusual approach, where visitors enter through a gap in the earthen walls. The main hall is designated as an Important Cultural Property and features a beautiful structure painted in vermilion with polychrome details, retaining traces of Momoyama period culture. However, due to the presence of fences and protective covers, it is now difficult to view the shrine buildings up close.
