History
According to oral tradition among the elderly, the shrine was founded in 1411 CE (Oei 18). Initially, it enshrined the deity Sukunahikona-no-Mikoto, and later, Sugawara no Michizane was added as a secondary deity. In 1570 CE (Tensho 7), the shrine was relocated to its current site following a divine oracle regarding the cure of an epidemic. As the Ujigami of the Bizen-ware village, it is venerated as a deity of scholarship and the pottery industry.
