History

Founded in 770 CE (Hōki 1) by Wake no Kiyomaro and dedicated to worship by his fourth son, Iwanashi Myōun. It received generous protection from successive feudal lords, including the Ōuchi and Hōsoku clans. Following the separation of Shinto and Buddhism in the Meiji era, it came to be called Oso Jinja (Oso Shrine), but after World War II, it reverted to the name Myokengū (Myoken Grand Shrine).
