History

During the Daito era, a small shrine called 'Wakamiya Hachiman' stood on this site, where Yuki Munehiro established a Hachiman Shrine. It later became the tutelary shrine of the Soma Nakamura Domain. In the 8th year of the Genroku era (1695), Soma Masashige commissioned the construction of magnificent palace-like structures, which came to be known as the 'Soma Nikko.' Following the Meiji Restoration, the shrine was renamed Hachiman Shrine. Today, it possesses shrine buildings that include properties designated as Important Cultural Properties of Japan.
