History
The exact date of its founding is unknown, but the presence of a small circular kofun (burial mound) within the precincts suggests it has been a sacred site since ancient times. When Kamata Village in Ebara District was divided to form Shinjuku Branch Village, the shrine received and enshrined the image of Kasuga, one of three deities (Shintai) crafted by the monk Eiki, which had been transferred from Hotta Shrine. After World War II, the shrine's common name was changed from Shinjuku Hachiman Shrine to Kamata Hachiman Shrine.

What visitors say
Located within walking distance of Keikyu Kamata Station, the shrine features a quiet and spacious precinct that contrasts sharply with the surrounding bustle. Visitors can enjoy a serene atmosphere reminiscent of an urban oasis, characterized by a clean approach path, an automatic water purification ritual (Temizu), and a grand torii gate. The shrine office accepts requests for Goshuin (calligraphic seal stamps), and stamps from nearby affiliated shrines can also be obtained here.
