History

There are theories that the deity was enshrined in 765 CE (Shinko Koun 2) by an inspector of the Tokaido, or that Nitta Yoshitsune established the shrine buildings in 1333 CE (Genkō 3) while setting up his military camp. In 1395 CE (Ōei 2), Asakura Mikawokami repaired the shrine buildings, and the shrine came to be known as the Twelve Shrines Gongen. Since the Meiji period, it has been called Kumano Shrine.
