History

The shrine's origins trace back to 1873 CE (Meiji 6), when Hikawa Shrine, Kumano Shrine, and Raiden Shrine were merged and named Kongsansha. Later, in 1902 CE (Meiji 35), Hie Shrine, Tōshō-gū, Ōhana Inari Shrine, and Hachiman Shrine were consolidated, and the entity was renamed to its current name, Kōjin Shrine. It was originally located in Miya-chi 5-chōme within the city but was subsequently relocated to its present site.
