Fukui Kokugun Shrine

〒910-0016 福井県福井市大宮2丁目13−8

4.3(468)

This shrine enshrines approximately 32,000 spirits of individuals associated with Fukui Prefecture who died serving the nation from the period around the Meiji Restoration through World War II.

History

In 1939, following the establishment of the Kokugun Shrine system, a patron association was formed. The shrine buildings were completed in 1941, and it was designated as a Kokugun Shrine by the Minister of Home Affairs. During the post-World War II occupation, the shrine was renamed 'Fukui Goryo-gu,' but it reverted to its current name in 1955. Although the buildings collapsed during the 1948 Fukui earthquake, they were subsequently rebuilt.
