History

Tradition holds that the shrine was founded during the Kakitsu era. It was originally enshrined in Umiya Valley, after which the Akamatsu clan relocated it to its current site and rebuilt it. At that time, it was known as Hinase Shrine and Itsukushima Shrine, but was later renamed Kasuga Shrine. In 1884 (Meiji 17), it was designated as a Gōsha (village shrine), and in 1907 (Meiji 40), it was designated as a shrine that receives offerings of sacred food and silk.
