Located in Yamagata City, Gifu Prefecture, this shrine enshrines deities of the direct imperial line, including Amaterasu-kanon (Heaven's Eternal Standing Deity), as well as the clan deity of the Minamoto family. It is believed to possess divine virtues that guide people toward happiness, such as national stability and household safety.

History

In 826 CE (Tenchō 3), Harahara Ichiwadzuka, the Governor of Mino Province, constructed the shrine buildings and enshrined the deities under the name 'Tenshin Daimyōjin.' During the Sengoku period, it was revered as the clan deity of the Toki family. In the Muromachi period, deities from Ishizumi Hachiman-gū were invited and co-enshrined, and the shrine was renamed 'Jūgoshaihō Daikengen.' In 1872 (Meiji 5), it was renamed to its current name, and in 1944 (Shōwa 19), it was elevated to the status of a Ryōsha (prefectural shrine).

What visitors say

Situated in a quiet, mountainous environment, the shrine features a serene atmosphere with moss-covered stone steps, charming shrine buildings, and a taiko-bashi (drum bridge). Goshuin (shrine seal stamps) are available in a box near the coin box in the worship hall; visitors write the date with a felt-tip pen and place 500 yen in the coin box. The surrounding area is rich in nature, so caution is required when accessing the shrine by car.
