History
It is said to have been established during the Heian period by enshrining a branch of the deity from Kasuga Taisha (Kasuga Grand Shrine) in Nara. Originally enshrined on Sarushima Island and called "Toshima Dai Myojin (Great Deity of the Ten Islands)," it was relocated to its current site in 1884 (Meiji 17). In 1909 (Meiji 42), 15 shrines and 10 deities from the Kogo area were consolidated here, and the shrine was designated as a Village Shrine.
