History
It is believed to have been founded around 701 CE (Taiho 1). It was once called 'Namba Jinmeisha' and was listed as one of the Seven Jinmei Shrines of Japan. In 1703 (Genroku 16), the courtesan Ohat and her servant Tokubei committed suicide at this site. Because this event served as the setting for Chikamatsu Monzaemon's Ningyo Joruri play 'Sonezaki Shinju', the shrine became commonly known as 'Ohat Tenjin'.
