History

Founded in 1151 CE (Ninpei 1) by Ushijima Kyomasa. It was revived in 1508 CE (Eiroku 1) by Ieyasu and became a shrine constructed by provincial governors. Originally located in Ushijima, Hasuike-cho, Saga City, it is believed to have been moved to its current location by Nabeshima Katsushige during the construction of the Saga Castle town area in the Keicho period.
