Ryuda Kannon Shrine

斑鳩町龍田南6丁目10−1

5.0(1)

A shrine listed in the Engishiki (a 10th-century codex) located in Ikoma, Nara Prefecture. It held the status of a prefectural shrine (kenja) under the old system. It was originally established as the guardian shrine (chinsūsha) of Hōryū-ji Temple.

History

It is recorded in the 927 CE (Engi 5) deity register as 'Ryuda Hiko Ryuda Hime Shrine, two seats.' According to shrine tradition, Prince Shōtoku was guided by the Great Deity of Ryuda (Ryuda Daimyōjin) when searching for the site of Hōryū-ji Temple, and this shrine was founded as its guardian deity. Following the separation of Shinto and Buddhism after the Meiji Restoration, it was separated from Hōryū-ji Temple and became independent from Ryuda Taisha in 1922 CE (Taishō 11).
