History

In 1660 CE (Manji 3), it is said that Sunamura Shinsaburo, who developed the Kuribata area surrounding the Hirasa River, enshrined the deity by inviting it from his hometown shrine, Fukushima Tenmangu. On the Miura Peninsula, it is considered the only Tenjin shrine, excluding Sashima Tenjinjima Tenmangu.
