History
The founding date is unknown, but tradition holds that it was established before 807 CE (Daido 2). The shrine was relocated to its current site in 1467 CE (Onin 1). Although it was destroyed by fire during the Sengoku period, it was rebuilt during the Edo period by Ikeda Terumasa. Since then, it has been under the protection of successive lords of the Yamazaki Domain until the present day.
