History
The shrine is said to have begun in 1186 when fishermen enshrined a deity at Arakayama, the site where Minamoto no Yoshitsune prayed for the protection of his martial success in 1185. During the Meiji era, the formation of the Kihingutai (Irregular Troops) and the dedication of military flags took place, and the divine power of the deity for long-lasting martial success has manifested through each era.

What visitors say
Located within walking distance of Shimonoseki Station, the shrine is accessed by climbing over 100 steep stone steps. While visitors should be careful when moving up and down the stairs, the summit offers views of the cityscape and night scenery. Goshuin (shrine seal stamps) are issued at the administrative office, and postal service is available when the shrine priest is absent.
