Kyuko-sha / Haiba Jinja
〒671-2234 兵庫県姫路市西脇１５９８
This shrine enshrines the auspicious omen of Empress Jingu breaking a large rock with three arrows. It is also known for the 'Fire Festival' (Hi Matsuri), a rare event nationwide where ceremonial lights are lit.
History
The shrine's founding is said to date back approximately 1,800 years. It began when Empress Jingu, returning from her campaign on the Korean Peninsula, broke a large rock into three pieces with a single arrow, an event regarded as an auspicious omen. Later, Emperor Chouai and Emperor Ojin were added to the enshrined deities, and they came to be revered collectively as the Three Deities of Haiba. During the Meiji era, following the Order for the Separation of Buddhism and Shintoism, the shrine reverted to its former name, Haiba Jinja. In 1907 (Meiji 40), Tachibana Jinja was merged into it.
