Located in Kashima Town, Kumamoto Prefecture, this shrine enshrines the deities of marriage. It is also known as 'Ukijima-san' because it appears to be a floating island when viewed from the opposite bank.

History

長保3年(1001年)、井王三郎直久が湿地帯の開墾中に熊野の神から教えを受け、池と「兜石」が現れたことに由来する。その日から兜石をご神体とし、屋敷神を神社へと移行した。以来、千年以上にわたり井王家が神職を担っている。

The surrounding area is home to many wild birds and aquatic creatures, allowing visitors to enjoy a peaceful stroll. The scenery is particularly beautiful in the winter mornings when mist surrounds the shrine. Goshuin (calligraphic seal stamps) are available handwritten.
