A shrine located in Himeji City, Hyogo Prefecture, officially named Tenman Shrine.

History

The shrine's origin is said to stem from Sugawara no Michizane stopping by on his way to his exile as Dazaifu. Sugawara no Michizane was enshrined at Iya Myojin, and later, when he became the main deity and the original local deities became subsidiary deities, the shrine was renamed Tenmangu. In the Meiji era, the associated temple was abolished, and in 1998 (Heisei 10), the shrine was relocated to its current location.
