History

During the Heian period, the shrine became the tutelary deity of Toji Temple, expanding its worship through its association with Shingon esoteric Buddhism. In 942 CE (Tenkyo 5), it attained the highest rank of Shoi-i. However, all structures were burned down during the Onin War, and the shrine was relocated in 1499 CE (Meio 8). Following the Meiji government's Order for the Separation of Shinto and Buddhism, the Buddhist halls were abolished, while the dedication of torii gates and the construction of private 'otsuka' (small shrines or tombs) became prominent.
