History
The founding date is unknown, but it is said to date back to the mid-6th century. It is considered a shrine deeply connected to the descent of the Heavenly Grandchild (Amatsuhiko) and the three generations of rulers in Hyuga Province. Originally enshrined at Setao, it was relocated multiple times due to repeated destruction by volcanic eruptions. Together with four shrines founded by the monk Shouku, it gathered devotion as the center of the 'Kirishima Rokusha Gongen' (Six Shrines of Kirishima), contributing to the flourishing of Kirishima faith.
