Located in Sakura City, Chiba Prefecture, this is a Gōsha (a shrine of regional importance) that has been historically revered as the chief guardian shrine of the Sakura Domain.
History
This shrine has been enshrined by the descendants of the Izukari no Mikoto, a leader of the Ta clan who served as the provincial governor (Kuni-no-mitateri) of the Inaba Province. During the Edo period, it was venerated as the deity protecting the Sakura Castle grounds and serving as the chief guardian of the Sakura Domain. The current shrine buildings were rebuilt in 1843 by Hotta Masayasu.
