History

It is said that in 859 CE (Sai-kan 1), during the enshrinement of the deities of Usa Jingu at Ishizumi Hachiman-gu by the monk Gyo-kyo, the shrine was founded at the place where the portable shrine (mikoshi) stopped. It is also said that in 860 CE (Sai-kan 2), the provincial governor Fumiya no Makoto Masayoshi founded the shrine based on an oracle from Usa Hachiman-gu. Additionally, it is said that during the Kan-ei period, the shrine was established by inviting the deity from a shrine of the same name, Sei Hachiman-jinja, located in Yame City.

What visitors say

Located in a residential area, this shrine has a warm atmosphere typical of a local tutelary deity (Ujigami). The grounds feature a large, imposing sacred tree (Goshinboku) that is also known as a power spot. It is recommended to visit with plenty of time to spare, as the parking lot gets crowded during Hatsumode (the first shrine visit of the New Year) and Shichi-Go-San (a celebration for children aged 3, 5, and 7).
