Yamato Takeru-no-Mikoto

History

The shrine stands beside the Shiratori-zuka Kofun, which is said to be the tomb of Yamato Takeru at Nobono. It enshrines a hat and a staff that the prince is believed to have held until his death. In 1873 (Meiji 6), the name was changed from 'Kasa-den' to the current name. In 1908 (Meiji 41), sixteen neighboring shrines were merged into this one. Hirata Atsutane, a scholar of the late Edo period, recorded that the shrine was efficacious for curing ailments such as swellings.
