Omura Shrine
〒856-0834 長崎県大村市玖島１丁目３４−３４−１
This shrine is enshrined on the site of the Honmaru (main keep) of Kishima Castle, which served as the residence of the Omura Domain. It enshrines the successive lords and domain heads of the Omura clan, maintaining a deep connection with the region's history.
History
Founded in 1805 CE (Bunka 2) by the lord of the Omura Domain, it was originally called 'Gorei-gū Dai Myōjin'. In the Meiji era, the shrine was relocated to the site of the Honmaru of Kishima Castle and renamed to its current name. As a shrine enshrining the successive lords and domain heads of the Omura clan, it has become a symbol of the bond between the former domain lord and the local residents.

What visitors say
The shrine features well-maintained torii gates and komainu (lion-dog statues), offering a scenic landscape with a distinct atmosphere. The cherry blossoms in spring are particularly beautiful, and the autumn foliage season is also recommended. Goshuin (shrine seal stamps) include rare kirie (cut-paper) types and special Goshuin from Inari-sama. There are also Yakubori-ishi (stone for warding off misfortune) in the surrounding area, which visitors can experience during their visit.
