Yamagata Shrine
〒400-0115 山梨県甲斐市篠原１９０
This shrine enshrines Yamagata Dai-ni and is deeply revered by many worshippers as a deity of learning and education.
History
The enshrined deity, Yamagata Dai-ni, was a visionary who advocated for the overthrow of the Tokugawa shogunate during the Bakumatsu period. In 1880 (Meiji 13), he received offerings for the festival rites following an imperial tour by Emperor Meiji. The shrine was founded in 1921 (Taisho 10) as a source of pride for the local community. Offerings for ritual expenses were provided during visits by members of the Imperial Family in 1912 (Meiji 45) and 1922 (Taisho 11). In 1974 (Showa 49), the shrine grounds were improved using materials donated from the dismantling of the Toyomasa-den at the Ise Jingu (Ise Grand Shrine).
