History
Originally known as Myoken Tendo and others, it was renamed Iwatsure Shrine in 1871 (Meiji 4). Ancestors of the Ashio district who migrated from Nikko Chuzenji Temple enshrined Myoken Tendo as their clan deity and established him as the guardian deity of the remote land. The shrine relocated to its current site in 1911 (Meiji 44). The shrine grounds feature a cypress tree selected for the Tochigi Prefecture Top 100 Notable Trees.
