Shibahiko Shrine

塩竈市一森山1−1

4.4(709)

This shrine enshrines Shibahiko-no-Kami, a deity said to protect agriculture, promote production, and oversee land development. It is located within the same precincts as Shiogama Shrine.

History

This shrine honors Shibahiko-no-Kami, who is said to have descended upon the banks of the Kanegawa River. According to a record from Genroku 8 (1695 CE), official offerings were made during the 3rd year of Emperor Tenji's reign, indicating that it was once a major shrine highly valued by local rulers. During the 1st year of Emperor Seiwa's Jogan era (859 CE), the deity's rank was elevated. In Encho 5 (927 CE), it was listed as a 'Myojin Dai' (Great Shrine of Famous Gods) in the Engishiki Jinmyocho (Register of Shrine Names in the Engishiki codex). During the Meiji period, the shrine was relocated into the grounds of Shiogama Shrine, and today both shrines operate under a single legal entity.
