Former Village Shrine Iwashiro Jinja

西脇市板波町4番地

4.0(8)

This shrine hosts the 'Namazu-osae Shiki' (earthquake-prevention ritual), which is designated as a cultural property by Hyogo Prefecture. Behind the main hall stands a massive rock, 5 meters high, that has long been an object of worship.

History

While its origins are unclear, it is said that the kami were invited in 992 CE (Seiryaku 3) and the shrine was established in 1050 CE (Eichō 5). It was relocated to its current site in 1542 CE (Tenbun 11), and the current main hall was built in the late 17th century.

What visitors say

Behind the shrine building lies a colossal Iwasaka (sacred rock) measuring 5 meters in height and up to 30 meters in length, creating an imposing atmosphere. While there is a torii gate along the road, the parking lot is located at the rear and can be difficult to find, so visitors should take care.
