This shrine serves as the Ujigami (local tutelary deity) of Komatsu City, Ishikawa Prefecture, and is also the Soshinju (chief guardian shrine) of the former Kaga Province. It is affectionately known as "O-Suwa-san" because it enshrines Suwa Oho-mi (Suwa Grand Deity) alongside Uebashi Oho-mi (Uebashi Grand Deity).

History
It is a historic shrine said to have been founded prior to 704 CE (Keiun 1). It is listed in the Engishiki (a 10th-century codex) as "Uebashi Shrine of Yaza rank in Nomi District, Kaga Province." During the Edo period, Maeda Toshitsune revered it as the guardian deity of both Komatsu and Kanazawa castles and constructed the current shrine buildings on this site. Locals have long revered it as the guardian deity of Kaga Province, calling it "O-Suwa-san."

What visitors say
The shrine grounds feature numerous colorful rabbit figurines made of Kutani-yaki (Kutani porcelain) as offerings. You can feel the deep connection to rabbits through various details, such as rabbit-themed ema (wooden votive plaques), omamori (protective amulets), and photo spots. Goshuin (shrine seal stamps) and omamori are distributed at the Suwa Kaikan (Suwa Hall), which also offers cute Goshuin-chō (Goshuin books). Its convenient location within walking distance of Komatsu Station is another major appeal.
