History

The shrine is said to have been founded when the Imperial Ancestors were enshrined on a small hill overlooking the Dōka Bay to pray for victory during Empress Jingū's campaign against the Three Kingdoms of Korea. It was once relocated due to the construction of the government-run Yawata Steel Works, but was re-established at its current location upon the founding of Nippon Steel. During Emperor Shōwa's tour of Kyushu, the shrine was honored with the bestowal of special ritual offerings.
