Susanoo-no-Mikoto

History

Legend holds that in 797 CE (Enryaku 16), the General of the Eastern Barbarians (Sei-i Taishōgun), Sakanoue no Tamamaro, visited the shrine. Pillar plaques (munejita) from the Muromachi and Edo periods remain, documenting the reconstruction and repair of the shrine buildings. The 'General Sugi' in the grounds is said to have grown from a chopstick that Tamamaro planted while praying for victory in battle.
