History

It is believed that Sawazaburo, an elder involved in the development of the Nishitani Shinmura settlement, enshrined this shrine from his own village. A shrine dedicated to Itsukushima Shrine was once enshrined at the site of a former village boundary shrine and was venerated locally alongside Hachiman Grand Shrine. Following the establishment of Hirao Village in 1889 (Meiji 22) and a merger in 1950 (Shōwa 25), the area took on its current name.
