History
Shinmei Shrine was established when the deities of Ise Jingu were enshrined (kansho) here. From the medieval period onward, as Ise faith spread, instances of the deities being enshrined in locations outside of divine estates (shinryo) increased. In the early modern period, the shrine came to be venerated as an agricultural deity, and it was sometimes enshrined as a guardian deity (chinjushin) during the development of new farmland.
