History
Until the Edo period, it was known as Hakusan Shrine and served as the guardian deity of Inuyama Castle. In 1537, Oda Nobukatsu relocated it to Hakusan-daira. Subsequently, it moved to Naguri-cho in 1606 and to its current location in 1882. In the fourth year of the An'ei era (1775), it was renamed 'Hakusan Harinawa Daimyojin,' officially adopting the name Harinawa Shrine.
