History
In 1615 CE (Genna 1), Ikeda Tadao, the lord of Okayama Castle, built the shrine to pray for a bountiful harvest and peace. In 1676 CE (Enpō 4), Ikeda Tsunamasa revived the shrine, enshrining a branch spirit (bunrei) from Ishizumi Hachiman-gu (Ishizumi Hachiman Shrine) and performing the migration ceremony (senshu). After being completely destroyed by fire twice, in 1909 CE (Meiji 42) and 1994 CE (Heisei 6), it was rebuilt with the support of the shrine's descendants (ushiko) and devotees.
