History
Founded in 1063 CE (Kōhei 6) to enshrine a branch spirit (bunrei) of Ise Jingu. It later became the chief guardian shrine (sōchinkon) for the 18 districts of Ryōden, which served as the divine domain of Ise Jingu. The name 'Mikura' (Imperial Kitchen) derives from the fact that silk, cotton, and other goods produced here were offered to Ise Jingu, and that the shrine fulfilled the role of the imperial kitchen for the Grand Shrine.
