Gofuku Shrine

池田市室町7−4

4.2(512)

A shrine enshrining the ancestral deity of Gofuku (fine silk fabrics) who passed away during the reign of Emperor Nintoku. It is considered one of the origins of the Japanese term 'Gofuku.'

History

The shrine's origins are said to date back to the era of Emperor Ojin, when Gofuku-hime, brought back from the state of Wu, was welcomed to the Ikeda area, and a weaving hall (Kiten) was built to enshrine her. She was enshrined the year after Emperor Nintoku's reign. Although the shrine was destroyed by fire during the Battle of Ario Castle, the main hall (honden) was rebuilt in 1594 CE (Keicho 9) by Toyotomi Hideyori.
