One of the three Tenjin shrines in Machida, this is one of the most visited shrines in the city. Next to the stone monument for the 'Historic Site of Ide-no-Sawa' within the grounds, there is an information board explaining the ancient battlefield of the Chosei-no-Ran (Chosei Rebellion).

History

During the Muromachi period, a statue of Tenjin was enshrined at this site. In 1630 CE (Kan'ei 7), a new statue of Tenjin was enshrined by Ozawa Genban, and Sugawara Shrine was established. In 2012, a new worship hall (haiden) was completed, the first in 237 years since the Tenmei era of the Edo period.

What visitors say

The spacious grounds are rich in greenery and offer many sights, including a substantial and impressive worship hall (haiden), a Kagura hall, and multiple subsidiary shrines. The approach path is divided into separate routes for entering and exiting, and the parking lot and newly built water purification basin (temizuya) are well maintained. Goshuin (shrine seal stamps) are available as pre-written copies at the office. The shrine is particularly lively from the New Year through the Coming of Age Day ceremony.
