History
The founding date is unknown, but one theory suggests it was established in 1202 CE (Kenren 2). The former head temple (betsudai-ji) was Kongou-ji, and the shrine served as the tutelary deity of Takino-kawa Village. The area has been a major producer of vegetable seeds since the Edo period. From the Meiji era onward, the shrine office was used as a meeting place for the Tokyo Seed Industry Association.
