History

It is said that Emperor Jimmu established his palace here before his Eastern Expedition, and the first shrine buildings were constructed during the reign of Emperor Suinin. In the medieval period, the theory that this was the imperial capital prior to Emperor Jimmu's Eastern Expedition became established. Following the Meiji Restoration's proclamation of the restoration of imperial rule, it gained prominence as the starting point of Emperor Jimmu's founding of the nation. During the Meiji era, it was elevated to the rank of Kanpei Taisha (Grand Shrine under direct imperial patronage). In Showa 15 (1940 CE), large-scale renovations commemorating the 2,600th anniversary of the nation's founding were completed, resulting in the current shrine grounds.
