History
The shrine's origins date back to the 8th year of Emperor Tenchi's reign (669 CE), when Nakatomi no Kane enshrined the kami of purification at this site. It was highly valued as one of the seven purification sites guarding Heian-kyo (Kyoto). During the Jinnai 1st year (841 CE) and Joogan 1st year (859 CE), it was classified as a Meishindaija (Great Shrine of Famous Deities) and designated as a Shikinaisha, establishing its status as a prominent local shrine since ancient times. From the Azuchi-Momoyama period through the Edo period, it received land donations from retainers of the Toyotomi clan and lords of the Zassho Domain, earning the title 'Purification Site of the Realm.'
