History

One of the oldest shrines in Japan with deep ties to mythology. It is said to have been relocated to its current site in the 16th year of Emperor Suinin's reign. Once ranked as the Ichinomiya (first shrine) of Kii Province and listed among the Meishindai-sha (major myojin shrines), it fell into disrepair after Toyotomi Hideyoshi confiscated its lands. It was revived during the Edo period by Tokugawa Yorinobu and took on its current form in the Taisho era.
