History
The shrine is said to have originated from a local guardian shrine located on the site of Fujiwara no Tada-michi's residence during the late Heian period. Shrine tradition holds that Minamoto no Yorimasa prayed at this shrine and defeated the Nue (a legendary monster), and the bow and arrow (Yajiri) used at that time are preserved as a treasure. In the early Meiji period, the shrine was separated from a temple due to the separation of Shinto and Buddhism, and is currently managed by Shinmei-cho.
