History
The exact date of its founding is unknown, but it is believed to have originated when a branch of the Toshi clan (later known as the Sugawara clan) enshrined their ancestral deity. It is listed as 'Sugawara Shrine' in the Engishiki and was formerly the tutelary shrine of Kikouji Temple. Following the separation of Shinto and Buddhism after the Meiji Restoration, it became independent from Kikouji Temple. In 2002, it was renamed 'Sugawara Tenmangu'.
