History

In the first year of the Yoro era (717 CE) under Empress Genmei, Kiyohara Sadatsuna enshrined and established the shrine as the head guardian of Yanogō. It is said that the divine spirit of Usa Jingu (Usa Grand Shrine) descended to this locality before later relocating to Ōita Prefecture. Since ancient times, it has been venerated as a guardian deity of archery and warfare by distinguished military families, and has also been deeply revered by the lords of the Uwakami Domain.
