Sugawara-no-Michizane (Tenjin)

History

The shrine's origins date back to 903 CE (Engi 3), when a retainer brought a statue of Michizane from his place of exile at Dazaifu and enshrined it. During the Kamakura period, Minamoto no Yoritomo constructed the shrine buildings. In the Edo period, Kasuga no Tsubone, who had been granted land by Tokugawa Iemitsu, invited the deity to reside there. The shrine buildings were destroyed by fire and air raids throughout history. In 2013, new high-rise condominiums and shrine facilities were constructed.
