History
The shrine was founded in 1063 CE (Kōhei 6) to enshrine a branch spirit of Ise Jingu. It once served as the chief guardian shrine (sōchinju) for the 18 districts of Ryōden, which were sacred estates (shinryō) of Ise Jingu. The name 'Mikuriya' derives from the role of 'Onkuriya' (imperial kitchen), which was responsible for offering silk, cotton, and other produced goods to Ise Jingu.
