History
The exact date of founding is unknown, but tradition holds that in the late 10th century, a son of the swordsmith Sanjo Kodaije Munehira settled in the area and enshrined the deity of Suwa Grand Shrine, which was his family's object of devotion. From the Meiji to the Showa era, the shrines Itsukushima Shrine, Dairokuten Shrine, Hie Shrine, and Hakusan Shrine were transferred and merged here.

What visitors say
The shrine is characterized by its abundant spring water, allowing visitors to purify their hands with clear water instead of using a traditional hand-washing basin. The grounds feature a large sacred tree and several subsidiary shrines, all of which are well-maintained. The area is shaded and has a calm atmosphere, but visitors using wheelchairs should be cautious as there are slopes and steep inclines on the path to the worship area.
