History
Recorded in the 'Engishiki Jinmyoucho' (Engishiki List of Shrine Names) during the 5th year of the Encho era (927 CE), it is one of the official shrines of Sagami Province. It has long been known locally as 'Maedori-san.' The shrine is historically associated with Minamoto no Yoritomo, who prayed here for the safe delivery of his wife, Hojo Masako, under the name 'Yon-no-Miya Maedori Dai Myojin.' In the 2nd year of the Kenryaku era (1212 CE), it was designated as a place of prayer for the shogun's household. The name of the local area, 'Yon-no-Miya,' is derived from this shrine.
