The shrine stands on the site where Takehira-yahiko-no-Mikoto, who allegedly rebelled during the reign of Emperor Suinin, was defeated. It is presumed to have existed during the Nara period and is recorded in the Engishiki (a 10th-century codex of shrine records).

What visitors say
Located near the embankment of the Kizu River, a distinctive feature is that the base of the torii gate is made of stone to prepare against flooding. Other unique sights include a lantern placed in the middle of the approach path and an offering box located behind the main hall. In January, a fire-related event called the Igomori Festival is held. There is no parking lot, so visitors worship at the torii gate.
