History
The shrine originated in 1166 CE (Nin'an 1) when Kagami Tonomitsu enshrined the Hachiman kami in Koshu Minamisho. In 1191 CE (Kenkyu 2), Nanbu Mitsuyuki constructed new shrine buildings and moved the deities there. In 1222 CE (Joou 1), the shrine was relocated to its current site. It has since been revered as the head shrine of the Nanbu clan, continuing through the restoration of the Nene Nanbu branch to the present day.
