History
The founding date is unknown, but shrine tradition states that it was originally established during the reign of Emperor Jimmu when Take-Mikazuchi-no-Mikoto enshrined the deity of Mount Miwa. Until the Edo period, it was visited as a stop on the Saigoku Kannon Pilgrimage (West Country Thirty-Three Kannon Sites). The shrine was relocated to its current site in 1577. After suffering damage from the 1959 Isewan Typhoon, it was rebuilt in 1961, modeled after its appearance during the Kamakura period.
