Matsuosa Shrine

十日町市浦田834

Located on Mount Matsuosa in Tokamachi City, Niigata Prefecture, this shrine is also known as Matsuosa Dai Gongen. It enshrines Nunakawabime-no-mikoto, a deity revered as the god of weaving, and serves as the chief guardian shrine for the surrounding region.

History

Legend holds that in 807 CE, Sakanoue no Tamamaro enshrined Nunakawabime-no-mikoto and relocated the main hall to the southwestern peak of Mount Matsuosa. During the medieval period, the site was designated as a women's forbidden ground, a restriction that was lifted after the Meiji Restoration. In 1869, the shrine was renamed Matsuosa Shrine. Today, it is venerated as the chief guardian shrine for the Matsuyama district and neighboring areas.
