History
Originally established as a temple enshrining Hokuken Myoken Sonsho-o, the guardian deity of the Chiba clan, it was protected by Minamoto no Yoritomo. During the Edo period, it functioned as a Shingon Buddhist temple but was converted into a shrine during the separation of Shinto and Buddhism in the early Meiji era. Today, it remains known as one of the most significant centers of Myoken faith in Japan.
