History

Founded in 1877 by volunteers from the former Matsue Domain as Rakuzan Shrine, with Naomasa Matsudaira as the enshrined deity. In 1898, it merged with the Tosho-gu shrine founded by Tadaharu Horio. The following year, in 1899, the shrine was relocated to the second bailey of Matsue Castle Hill and renamed Matsue Shrine. In 1931, the spirits of Jisai Matsudaira and Kiyoharu Horio were added as subsidiary deities to honor their virtues.
