History
Founded during the Jogan era of Emperor Seiwa (860 CE), the shrine was relocated to its current site to serve as the guardian deity of Okayama Castle. During the period of the Ikeda clan, the former feudal lords, it was highly respected as the castle's guardian shrine, with successive lords overseeing its construction and maintenance. Although parts were destroyed by wartime fires, modern shrine buildings were constructed during the Showa era.
