History
According to shrine tradition, it was re-established in 806 CE (Daidō 1) by imperial decree from Emperor Heisei, who invited the enshrined deity (kami) of Kumano Gongen from Kii Province. There is also a theory that it was founded by Taira no Kiyomori in the late Heian period. It was designated a Gōsha (village shrine) in 1872 (Meiji 5) and a Kenja (prefectural shrine) in 1917 (Taishō 6).
