History

Tradition holds that the shrine was founded in 869 CE (Jogan 11) and has been revered since ancient times. During the Meiji period, the merger of Kano Tenmangu and Kawakami Shrine resulted in its current name, Kawakami Tenman Shrine. In the Edo period, it was featured in the 'Kiso Kaido Dohai Ho Zukan' (Illustrated Guide to Treasures along the Kiso Highway), known as a place where travelers visited to relieve their fatigue.
