Himegū Shrine

大野町稲富字上更地257−1

3.7(6)

A shrine enshrining the deity Haku-san Hi-zen-no-Mikoto. It has a history rooted in the local community's devotion to the spiritual power of Hiyama Gongen, which washed ashore during a disaster.

History

The exact date of founding is unknown, but it is an ancient shrine listed in the Mino Province Shinto Registry as one of the 32 shrines in Ono District, appearing to hold the rank of Upper Sixth Rank. During a disaster in 1718 CE (Kyōhō 3), locals were moved by the spiritual power of Hiyama Gongen, which drifted down from upstream. They named the shrine 'Himegū Shrine' and began enshrining the deity. The Toda clan, lords of Ōgaki Domain, also held the shrine in high esteem, contributing to its maintenance and the repair or construction of its buildings.
