Igaruga Shrine

四日市市茂福甲483

Located in Mofuku, Yokkaichi City, Mie Prefecture, this shrine is listed in the Engishiki (a 10th-century codex) and holds the former rank of Gōsha (village shrine). It is also known as Kita-Igaruga Shrine or Saigū Daimyōjin.

History

According to tradition, in the 18th year of Emperor Chūai's reign, when Princess Yamatohime was on her journey to find a suitable location for the Grand Palace of Amaterasu Ōkami, she stopped in this area, and the shrine was established to enshrine her. During the Kan'ei era, the village was divided into northern and southern sections, resulting in the establishment of two Igaruga Shrines standing side by side.
