History
Founded by Tadamasa Kuroda, the second daimyo of the Fukuoka Domain, the shrine is formally named Sakurai Shrine. According to shrine tradition, a divine spirit appeared during a severe thunderstorm in 1610 (Keichō 15). Sakurai Daijingū was established in 1625 (Kan'ei 2), and Sakurai Shrine was founded in 1632 (Kan'ei 9). The current name was adopted in 1869 (Meiji 2) when the tutelary deities of eight villages in Sakurai Village were merged here.
