History

Traditionally said to have been founded in 709 CE (Wadō 2). Since ancient times, Mount Goen has been worshipped as the sacred body mountain (shintai-san). The current shrine buildings were constructed in 1345 CE (Shōhei 1) under Ashikaga Takauji. During the Meiji period, it was classified as a Kokhei Chūsha (National Shrine of Middle Rank). Until the late Edo period, the phrase 'the deity of Izumo' referred specifically to this shrine.
