Hachiman Okami

History

It is said to have been established in 1276 CE (Kenkyu 7) when Ouchi Yoshinao enshrined a branch spirit from Tsurugaoka Hachimangu. Due to flooding from the Oita River, the shrine was relocated to the east of its current location in 1279 CE (Kenen 1). During the medieval period, it was revered by the Ouchi clan as the guardian deity of the city. In the Meiji era, it was moved to Minami Shinchi, but returned to its current location in 1921 CE (Taisho 10). In 2003 CE (Heisei 15), the shrine buildings were reconstructed due to road construction.
