History
The date of founding is unknown, but according to shrine tradition, in 1191 CE (Kenkyu 2), Minamoto no Yoritomo designated it as a prayer site for the consecration of a bridge over the Banai River. The following year, a sacred horse was offered in prayer for the safe delivery of his wife. In 1873 CE (Meiji 6), it was designated a village shrine, and in 1908 CE (Meiji 41), it was designated a shrine for the offering of sacred food and silk.
