History

Legend holds that the shrine was founded in 1125 by Minamoto no Yoshikuni. In 1174, Minamoto no Yoshitsune enshrined a branch spirit (bunrei) from Fushimi Inari Taisha (Fushimi Inari Grand Shrine), after which the shrine came to be called Kaninari. In 1333, Nitta Yoshitsune performed a prayer for victory in battle and dedicated a heavy-box lion (juubako shishi).
