History
It is said that the shrine was founded in 1626 CE (Kan'ei 3) when the enshrined deity Susanoo-no-Mikoto was invited from Suwa Taisha (Suwa Grand Shrine), the Ichinomiya (first-ranked shrine) of Musashi Province. During the Edo period, it served as the protective deity of Nishi-Arai Village. In 1873 CE (Meiji 6), it was classified as a Mura-sha (village shrine). In 1967 CE (Showa 42), the shrine grounds were renovated, and the orientation of the shrine buildings was changed to face east.
