History
The founding date is unknown, but shrine tradition states it was established during the Ninna era by descendants of Oe Otohito. The oldest surviving beam tablet dates to 1280 CE (Kōan 3), with others from 1307 CE (Tokuchi 2) and 1341 CE (Rekiō 4) also existing. Since the Edo period, the shrine has claimed to be the Sakaniwa Shrine of Yamada District recorded in the Engishiki (a 10th-century codex).

What visitors say
Situated within a residential area, the location can be difficult to find, so using navigation is recommended. There is parking available, and the grounds are clean. Ema (wooden prayer plaques), Goshuin (calligraphic seal stamps), and omamori (amulets) featuring star motifs are available. Next to the shrine office, there is a space to view star-shaped ema with wishes written by singers, creating a charming atmosphere.
