History

The shrine's origins trace back to the Ouan era (1368–1375 CE), when a Shugendo practitioner named Fuji-bo enshrined a branch deity (bunrei) from Ise Jingu (Ise Grand Shrine). In 1874 CE (Meiji 7), the town name was changed to Yamanokamicho, and the shrine was renamed Yamagami Daijingu. In 1907 CE (Meiji 40), it was designated as a shrine that offers divine food and offerings (Shinsen Heihaku-ryo Kyoshin). The main buildings were reconstructed between 1930 and 1932 CE (Shōwa 5–7). During the Battle of Hakodate, the shrine was also used as the residence of Matsudaira Sadayori.
