History
The founding date is unknown, but the shrine buildings are said to have been constructed in 1421. During the Edo period, it faced the artisan district of the Miyazu castle town and was so prosperous that the names of wealthy merchants who visited from the western Japan region, facilitated by Hokketsu ship traffic, remain inscribed on the jade walls. It was formerly known as "Wakenomiya" as a branch shrine of Kago Shrine, but was renamed "Wakimiya" in recent years.
