History

Founded in 806 CE (Daido 1) to ward off evil spirits at the demon gate of Kikyo Castle. In 1721 CE (Hoei 6), the shrine buildings were reconstructed with support from the Hosokawa clan. It was designated a Mochigi Domain Shrine in 1871 (Meiji 4) and elevated to a Prefectural Shrine in 1938 (Showa 13).
