History
Although the formal history of Takaryu Shrine dates back only to the mid-Taisho period, its history of faith is considered ancient. Legend holds that approximately 600 years ago, Takagi Minbu Nagaharu, a military commander of the Southern Court, fled the capital after a defeat and settled in Yomogida, a place said to be inhabited by dragon deities (Ryujin). Villagers have revered this legend for centuries.
