History

In 1532 CE (Tensho 1), the shrine was established as a guardian deity for the demon gate of Karuizawa Castle when Akai Terumitsu constructed the fortress. Over the centuries, successive castle lords carried out repairs and renovations of the shrine buildings. During the Edo period, the shrine underwent repeated processes of enshrinement of subsidiary deities and mergers, continuing to the present day.
