History
The shrine enshrines the spirit of the Oi River, but its founding date is unknown. According to legend, it drifted downstream during a flood in the second year of Kenchi (1276 CE) and washed ashore in Shimada. It was relocated to its current site in the second year of Genroku (1689 CE). During the Meiji era, it was elevated to the rank of a prefectural shrine, and after World War II, it was added to the list of shrines affiliated with the Association of Shinto Shrines.
