板橋区志村2丁目16−2

4.0(1)

A shrine located in Shimura, Itabashi Ward, Tokyo, established on the site of the former second enclosure (Ninomaru) of Shimura Castle.

History

It is said to have been established in 1042 CE (Chōkyū 3) when Shimura Shōkan, a local powerful clan leader, invited the deity from Kumano in Kishu (modern-day Wakayama Prefecture). Built on the site of the former second enclosure of Shimura Castle, it is also said that Minamoto no Yoritomo made prayers for long-lasting military fortune here. Later designated as the guardian deity of Shimura Castle, it is now enshrined as the chief guardian deity (Sōchinkami) of the Shimura district.
