History
According to tradition, the shrine began when the Oda clan, vassals of the Kira clan, enshrined the Hachiman deity as the guardian deity of the eastern part of Setagaya District while constructing Okusawa Castle during the Muromachi period. It was renamed Okusawa Shrine during the Meiji period when neighboring shrines were merged. The Great Snake Procession, a ritual continuing since the mid-Edo period, is designated as an Intangible Folk Cultural Property of Tokyo.
