History

The founding date is unknown, but it may have existed prior to the 10th century. It was called Hioki Hachiman-jingu (Hioki Hachiman Grand Shrine) until the early modern period and served as the tutelary deity of Hioki Village in Aichi District. In the mid-Edo period, Amino Nobunaga identified it with the 'Hioki Shrine' listed in the Engishiki (a 10th-century codex). During the medieval period, the deity Hachiman Daijin (Great Deity Hachiman) was invited from Otayama in Yamashiro Province and enshrined together with the original deity.

What visitors say

Situated along National Route 19, the shrine is characterized by its spacious grounds enveloped in lush forest. The straight approach path from the front torii gate to the worship hall creates a serene atmosphere, and numerous shrine buildings are arranged within the precincts. Goshuin (a shrine's calligraphic seal stamp) can be obtained at the administrative office, with two types available: one for Hioki Shrine and one for the subsidiary shrines within the grounds.
