〒765-0013 香川県善通寺市文京町４丁目５−５
This is a Kokoku Shrine (Patriotic Shrine) enshrining over 35,700 war dead from Kagawa Prefecture. Its formal name is Sanmi Jingu (Sanmi Grand Shrine).
History
The shrine's origins date back to 1898 CE (Meiji 31), when the 11th Division of the Imperial Japanese Army was established and a Chokonsha (Soul-Summoning Shrine) was set up. It was designated as a Kokoku Shrine by the Minister of the Interior in 1938 CE (Shōwa 13). After suffering damage and neglect in the post-war period, restoration work was completed in 1985 CE (Shōwa 60).
