History
It served as the village shrine for the former Nita Horinouchi village and is said to have been enshrined at its current location prior to the Tensho era. During the epidemic of 1715 CE (Shōtoku 5), it was noted for its miraculous efficacy in saving many children, which led to its name, Koan Inari. It was classified as a Muroku-sha (unranked shrine) in the early Meiji period and was promoted to a Mura-sha (village shrine) in 1925 CE (Taisho 14).

A quiet and serene shrine nestled within a residential neighborhood.

The cherry blossoms are particularly beautiful in spring, and fox statues are scattered throughout the grounds. It is easily accessible by foot from Ikebukuro Station or by bus.
