History
This shrine is a branch shrine of Nikko Tosho-gu and Nikko Futarasan Shrine. Its three enshrined deities have been referred to as Takio Dai-Gongen since ancient times. In 1528 CE (Daiei 3), three statues—Amida Nyorai (Amitabha Buddha), Buda Kannon (Horse-Head Kannon), and Senju Kannon (Thousand-Armed Kannon)—attributed to the Kyoto sculptor Fukuda Ko-en, were jointly enshrined. As a former designated village shrine, it has long been prayed to for the peace and safety of the villagers and for abundant harvests.
