History
In 1591 CE (Tenshō 19), it was enshrined as the general guardian deity of the water region by Mito Castle Lord Satake Yoshinobu. In 1694 CE (Genroku 7), the shrine was relocated to Naka Nishimura, but in 1711 CE (Hōei 6), it was moved back to the sacred grounds of Shirohata Mountain in Mito. It is said that at this time, a single white crane descended to determine the location of the sacred grounds.
