History

According to shrine tradition, the shrine was founded in 1064 CE (Kōhei 7) by Minamoto no Yoriyoshi, who prayed for the peace of the nation and the Minamoto clan after his victory in the Northern Expedition (Zenkyū no Eki). It is a paired shrine with Sagiya Hachiman Shrine, which was built first; consequently, Takamatsu Hachiman Shrine is also known as Wakamiya Hachiman Shrine (the younger Hachiman shrine). In 1872 CE (Meiji 5), it was designated as a village shrine of Kami-Nerima Village.

What visitors say

The shrine retains its sacred forest (chinju no mori), where thick, mature trees create a quiet, shaded atmosphere. The shrine buildings are situated on a high platform reached by stone steps. The traditional landscape is well-preserved, featuring vibrant torii gates and impressive komainu (lion-dog statues). A paved parking lot is available. Accessing the shrine from the Kanaya-dori (Ring Road 8) side involves no steep slopes, and the steps are not overly steep, making it an easy visit even for elderly visitors.
