History
Founded during the Karoku era (1225–1227 CE) as the Soshinju of the then-existing Okegawa-go (Okegawa district). In 1717, it was granted the rank of Shichi-i (First Rank) by the Yoshida family, who served as Shikisakanryochojo (Senior Chief of the Bureau of Divination and Rites). Following the separation of Shinto and Buddhism in the early Meiji period, the Bettoji (attached temple) Nanzo-in was closed, and its monks renounced their vows to become shrine priests at this shrine.
