History

During the Kōhō era, the Senda Shōheikō clan developed the land and built a shrine dedicated to the Ujin (local tutelary deity), naming it Senda Shrine. After lamenting and praying over the failure of crops to bear fruit, they received a divine revelation to cultivate sweet potato starch (katakuriko), which saved the farmers from starvation. This legend is the reason the shrine is also called Katakuriko Hachimangu (Katakuriko Hachiman Grand Shrine).
