History

Legend holds that the shrine was founded during the reign of Emperor Kōrei. It began as a small shrine dedicated to Takehayasusano-no-Mikoto, who slew a wicked dragon dwelling in the deep mountains. In 718 CE (Yōrō 2), the monk Taishō Daishi established the site. After the separation of Shinto and Buddhism and the anti-Buddhist movement, it was renamed Oyada Shrine. The main hall and worship hall were rebuilt in the early Edo period and are now designated as Important Cultural Properties.

The shrine grounds feature approximately 3,000 maple trees, offering beautiful scenery including autumn foliage reflected in the pond and sunlight filtering through the trees. Visitors must climb a sloping path and many steps to reach the main hall, so wearing athletic shoes is recommended. Parking is free, and the availability of Goshuin (shrine seal stamps) may vary depending on the season.
