History

According to tradition, the shrine was established in 1347 CE (Shōwa 3) when a Shugendō practitioner named Fuchōbō invited the deities from Ise Jingu. It was relocated to its current site in 1597 CE (Keichō 2). During the Edo period, it developed as the chief guardian shrine (Sōchinju) of Oomama town. Although the shrine buildings were destroyed by a major fire in the Meiji era, the current structures were rebuilt in 1890 CE (Meiji 23).
