History
It is believed that the shrine was established as Yoroi Daimyojin to guard the demon gate (kimon) of Ensho-ji Temple, which was founded during the reign of Emperor Daigo. There is a legend that the armor of Taira no Masakado was buried here at the beginning of the Tenryaku era. Around the middle of the Meiji period, Tenjin Shrine was relocated within the precincts as a subsidiary shrine.

What visitors say
Located in a residential area with narrow roads, making it somewhat difficult to find, but it offers a quiet atmosphere for worship. The grounds feature several subsidiary shrines, and Goshuin (calligraphic seal stamps) are available. For those arriving by car, it is convenient to use the hourly parking lots along Okubo Street due to the narrow surrounding roads.
