History

The shrine's origins are said to date back to 1494 CE, when Fujita Minbu, the local head of the Ebi-no-Sō district in Chita District, enshrined Sugawara no Michizane, who had been worshipped in his residence, as the Ujigami (local tutelary deity) following the reclamation of the Nagasō area. It was designated a Village Shrine in 1872 CE (Meiji 5) and later granted the status of a Shrine for the Offering of Food and Silk in 1907 CE (Meiji 40).
