History
Founded during the Kōan period (1278–1288 CE). Even after the separation of Shinto and Buddhism in the early Meiji period, the statue of Hachiman Daibosatsu (Great Bodhisattva Hachiman), which bore strong characteristics of the syncretism of Shinto and Buddhism, was burned. Its ashes were buried within the shrine grounds and enshrined as the Genmi-sama (Original Palace Deity).

What visitors say
Located on a plateau overlooking the Arakawa River, this shrine is surrounded by a forest at its back, giving it a distinctive atmosphere. The grounds are relatively spacious and quiet, allowing for a peaceful visit outside of the New Year period. The parking lot is located past the torii gate. In front of the office, you can find Goshuin (shrine seal stamps) and lucky charms such as pet cats and beckoning cats.
