History
According to tradition, a white crane that announced the death of Emperor Yamato Takeru arrived here, leading to the deity being called Shiratori Ookami (Great Deity of the White Crane). In 1880 (Meiji 13), the name was changed to Shiratori Shrine. In 1181 (Jisho 5), Minamoto no Yoshinaka prayed for victory at this shrine. It also prospered as the tutelary deity of the Shinono clan, including the Uno and Sanada families. There is a legend that during the Battle of Uno-daira in 1582 (Tensho 10), Sanada Yukitaka broke through enemy lines thanks to the spiritual power of this shrine.
