History
According to shrine tradition, Fujiwara no Hidesato founded the shrine in 940 CE in what is now Nakakuiki, Oyama City. It is said to have moved to its current location during the Heiji period (1159–1160 CE). During the medieval period, it was deeply revered by the Oyama clan and served as the guardian deity of Oyama Castle. In the early Edo period, Honda Masazumi, the lord of the Oyama Domain, relocated the shrine to its present site.
