History
Revered as the Ujigami (local tutelary deity) of the eight villages in the Shikiishi district, the shrine complex comprises the Okumiya (inner sanctuary), Nakamiya (middle sanctuary), and Satomiya (outer sanctuary). In 712 CE (Wado 5), the deity Uga-no-Mitama-no-Kami was enshrined. In 806 CE (Daido 1), Takeminakata-no-Kami and Yasakatome-no-Kami were enshrined as branch deities from Kamisuwa Shrine. Although the shrine buildings were washed away by a flood in 1576 CE (Tensho 4), they were relocated to the current site. Since then, the shrine has received donations from local lords.

What visitors say
In spring, the contrast between the cherry blossoms and the red torii gates is beautiful, making it a popular spot for photography. The approach features steep slopes and stairs, leading to a charming corridor lined with lanterns at the back. Parking is available. Goshuin (calligraphic seal stamps) and Gokokuin (woodblock seal stamps) can be obtained, and Omikuji (fortune slips) are also provided.
