History

The shrine's origins are said to date back to the era of Emperor Keiko, when the deity of Inari was first enshrined. The main hall was constructed when Prince Shotoku established Shitennoji Temple, and Emperor Chujin was later enshrined here, making it one of the Seven Shrines of Shitennoji. In 788 CE (Enryaku 7), the area's name was changed from Furei to Kawabori after Waki Yasumaro prayed for the safety of civil engineering projects. In the early Edo period, a worship hall in the Gongen-zukuri style was donated by Katagiri Katamoto. In 1907 CE (Meiji 40), Inari Shrine from Shimizudani was merged into this shrine, resulting in its current name.
