History
The founding date is unknown, but it is said that the shrine was once enshrined on Mount Mitsukou (Mitsukou Mountain) and received protection from Oda Nobukatsu. From the Edo period onward, it served as the guardian deity of the Naruse clan, the lords of Inuyama Castle. Following the separation of Shinto and Buddhism in the early Meiji period, it transitioned from Mitsukou Temple to Mitsukou Inari Shrine. The shrine relocated to its current site in 1964.
