History
The shrine's origins date back to 709 CE (Wado 2), when it was first enshrined in the region of Muzashi no Kuni Makioka. In 910 CE (Kankyo 7), it was relocated to Kubo Mita in Mita-go, Musashi Province. Following auspicious omens associated with Tokugawa Ieyasu's entry into Edo Castle, the current main hall was constructed in 1662 CE (Kanbun 2) on the coast of Kamitakanawa Village, Ebara District. During the Meiji era, the shrine was renamed 'Hieda Shrine' and later 'Mita Hachiman Shrine,' but it reverted to its current name, 'Mita Hachiman Shrine,' in 1897 CE (Meiji 30).

Situated on a quiet hilltop away from the bustle of the office district, the shrine exudes a serene and sacred atmosphere once you climb the steps. The grounds feature a substantial worship hall (haiden) along with several subsidiary shrines and small structures. The shrine office offers pre-written Goshuin (shrine seal stamps), which are characterized by a large, round design.
