History
The site is believed to be the location of a traveling palace where Emperor Chuai stayed while pacifying the Kumaso people. The shrine's origins trace back to Empress Jingō enshrining Emperor Chuai. During the reign of Emperor Shōmu, the three main halls were separated, but they were later merged into a single structure following a medieval fire, leading to the name 'Imiya' (Taboo Palace). The shrine has a history of receiving prayers for military victory from Ashikaga Takauji and enjoying the protection of the Mōri clan of Nagatsuka.
