Takemikazuchi-no-Okami

History

The shrine's founding is attributed to Empress Jingū, who designated this mountain as a sacred site of a Kannabi (a shrine complex) and enshrined Takemikazuchi-no-Mikoto during her return journey from the Three Kingdoms of Korea. During the Tenpyō era, the monk Jōki enshrined Toyouke-hime-no-Mikoto as a deity for development and protection. Until the late Edo period, the shrine strongly maintained its character as the tutelary deity of the former Nishidai Village. The number of worshippers increased following the maintenance of the shrine grounds in the Meiji period and the paving of the approach road in the early Shōwa period.
