Izuyama Shrine, Hon-gū (Head Shrine)

大仙市花館揚の森1番

Located in Ōsaki City, Akita Prefecture, this shrine was once revered as the guardian deity of those involved in boat transport on the Omon River. Every February, the unique festival known as 'Fudengyo (the ferrying of the Fudengyo deity)' is held, featuring the offering of the Fudengyo deity by ferry boat.

History

During the Enryaku era, Sakanoue no Tamamaru prayed for the pacification of the Eastern Barbarians during his campaign against them and, as a votive offering, constructed the shrine buildings. It was originally called Furo-zan Shrine, and its settlement festival (Chinza-sai) was performed in 807 CE (Dōtō 2). It was later renamed Izuyama Shrine during the Tenshō era (1573–1591 CE).
