History
Its predecessor is said to have been founded in 704 CE (Denkei 1) as Sugihara-gu (Sugihara Shrine). Around 871 CE (Seikan 13), the enshrined deities were transferred to the current Moto-gu (Head Shrine), and in 1624 CE (Genna 10), they were moved to the present location. In 1193 CE (Kenkyu 4), it is said that Ohtomo Yoshinao revised the worship rituals to align with those of Tsurugaoka Hachiman-gu (Tsurugaoka Hachiman Grand Shrine).

What visitors say
The shrine grounds contain numerous subsidiary shrines. The main hall (honden) is a large wooden structure that evokes a strong sense of history, and the stone pillars surrounding the perimeter are covered in moss. The approach path features a long flight of stone steps with a somewhat steep incline, but parking lots are available both near the main hall and at the base of the stairs. Facilities such as the Goshuin (shrine seal stamp) reception desk, the shrine office, and restrooms are well-maintained.
