History

The shrine is said to have originated when Tajibi Fumiko, the wet nurse of Sugawara no Michizane, built a small shrine in her home to enshrine him after receiving a divine message from him. It is recognized as the birthplace of Tenjin worship and is said to be the predecessor of Kitano Tenmangu. The shrine was repeatedly destroyed by fires and rebuilt, with the current main hall constructed in 1918.
