History

The founding date is unknown, but it is presumed to date back to at least the Nara period. During the Heian period, it was recorded as 'Yoro Meishin'. In 1504, Sugawara no Michizane was jointly enshrined, and the shrine was renamed 'Yoro Tenjin'. In the early Meiji period, the worship sites for Emperor Genso and Emperor Shomu were relocated and jointly enshrined here, leading to the current name 'Yoro Jinja'.
