History
The founding date is unknown, but the name 'Kashima Miko Shrine' first appeared in records in 859 CE. It is listed among the one hundred shrines of the Mutsu Province in the Engishiki (a 10th-century codex). Historically, it received donations and renovations from powerful figures. After the main hall was dismantled following the 2013 earthquake, a new main hall was completed in 2019 using the Saiboden structure donated from Ise-Yama Kotohoku-gu Shrine.
