Yoshida Shrine

京都市左京区吉田神楽岡町30

4.3(1906)

Located on Mount Yoshida in Sakyo Ward, Kyoto City, this shrine is one of the 22 Shrines (specifically one of the Lower Eight Shrines). It enshrines the same four deities as Kasuga Taisha (Kasuga Grand Shrine) and has historically been revered as the ancestral shrine of the Fujiwara clan.

History

貞観元年、藤原山蔭が一門の氏神として春日大社の四座の神を勧請したことに始まる。鎌倉時代以降は卜部氏(後の吉田家)が神職を相伝し、江戸時代には全国の神社の神職の任免権を与えられるなど大きな権勢を誇った。明治時代に国家神道の影響で特権を剥奪され、現在は神社本庁の別表神社となっている。
