History
According to shrine tradition, its founding dates back to the age of the gods, prior to the founding of Japan. During the Heian period, it was visited by Emperor Saga and others. The temporary festival held during the reign of Emperor Enyu is considered the origin of the current Jishu Festival. Until the Edo period, it was known as Jishu Gongen Shrine, serving as the guardian shrine of Kiyomizu-dera. It became an independent shrine following the separation of Shinto and Buddhism in the Meiji era.
