History
In 1694 CE (Genroku 7), Tokugawa Mitsukuni merged two shrines: Kashima-gu, which had enshrined the deity Take-mikazuchi-no-Kami since 806 CE, and Hachiman-gu, which was invited by Minamoto no Yoriyoshi in 1063 CE. In 1873 CE (Meiji 6), it was renamed to its current name, Kashima Hachiman Jinja. It is currently designated as a Special Shrine of Ibaraki Prefecture.
