富士河口湖町勝山３９５１
Considered the first shrine to enshrine the deity of Mount Fuji, this is one of the many Asama shrines found throughout Japan. It is registered as a component asset of the UNESCO World Heritage site "Fujisan: Sacred Place and Source of Artistic Inspiration."
History
It is said to have been founded in 699 CE (Bunbu 3) by Fujiwara no Yoshitada. In 958 CE (Tentoku 2), Emperor Murakami established a satellite shrine (sato-gu) on the southern shore of Lake Kawaguchi. During the Sengoku period, it received the patronage of the Takeda clan. In the Meiji era, the name was changed from "Omuro Asama Shrine" to "Fuji Omuro Asama Shrine."
