History
The exact date of founding is unknown, but according to ancient tradition, it was established by inviting the deities from Oarai Iso Shrine in Hitachi Province and Ōyamatsumi Shrine in Iyo Province. In the third month of the second year of the Kansei era (1790 CE), Lord Shimazu Nariaki was inspired by the unique rocks along the coast and had the name 'Ryūgan' (Black Dragon Rock) inscribed on a stone within the shrine grounds, which still exists today.
