Matsuosa Shrine

十日町市福島935

Located on Matsuosa Mountain in Inubushi, Tokamachi City, Niigata Prefecture, this shrine is also known as Matsuosa Dai Gongen (Matsuosa Grand Deity). It enshrines Nunakawa-hime-no-mikoto, a deity revered as the god of weaving, and was established in various locations.

History

Legend holds that Sakanoue no Tamamaro enshrined Nunakawa-hime-no-mikoto during his return journey from an expedition against the Emishi and later moved the shrine to the southwestern peak of Matsuosa Mountain. In 1869 CE, following the Meiji Restoration, the shrine was renamed Matsuosa Shrine. During the medieval period, it was a site where women were prohibited from entering, but this restriction was lifted after the Meiji Restoration.
