In the Meiji era, it was renamed 'Ejima Shrine' and later merged with 'Sugiyama Shrine', which enshrines Sugiyama Kazuichi, resulting in its current name.

Located within the grounds of Tsugaru Inari Shrine, this is a compact shrine accessed by crossing a small bridge. The well-maintained precincts exude a quiet and sacred atmosphere despite being in the city. Goldfish swim in a small pond, reflecting how cherished the site is by the local community.
