History
Originally named Uchino Hachimangu, it was located northeast of the Great Palace in Heian-kyo and was regarded as a deity protecting the royal city. It was founded through a direct invitation of the kami from Usa Hachimangu Shrine in Buzen Province. Because it is said that Minamoto no Yoshitsune prayed here for safety on his journey to Mutsu Province, it has gathered devotion as a deity of departures and travel safety.
