History
Rituals have been performed here since ancient times. Originally, worship facilities were located on the middle slopes of Mount Daisen, but due to the inconvenience of winter snowfall, a winter sanctuary was built at Maruyama. After being destroyed by fire during the Muromachi period, it was rebuilt in 1599 CE (Bunroku 8). During the Edo period, it was moved to its current location at Oitaka through donations from wealthy farmers. In the Meiji period, the winter sanctuary and the summer sanctuary (Chimei Gongenja) were integrated, resulting in the current shrine complex style.
