History
The shrine was founded in the early Edo period when Sakai Shigemune, the first daimyo of the Maebashi Domain, enshrined the Inari deity on the local giant rock. Because the deity resides on the giant rock, it came to be called 'Iwagami Inari Shrine,' and the village at that time was named 'Iwagami Village.'

What visitors say
Located within the town, its most distinctive feature is a huge rock said to have been transported from Mount Asama. Large trees line the precincts, and flowers planted around the rock keep the area beautifully maintained. You can receive a Goshuin (calligraphic seal stamp) pre-written at the Maebashi Toshogu Shrine located to the south.
