History
Beginning in 1908 (Meiji 41), the Tokyo Pharmaceutical Association invited the spirit of the Yakuso deity from Gojō Tenman Shrine. The first shrine building was constructed on the rooftop of the association's office building in 1929 (Shōwa 4). A second shrine building was erected in 1983 (Shōwa 58), and the current third-generation shrine building was constructed and dedicated in the Fukutoku no Mori in 2016 (Heisei 28).
