History

The shrine was founded in 1212 CE (Kenrei 2) by Arai Gaiki Tomonori, who served as a close retainer to Minamoto no Yoriie. According to tradition, Tomonori received a divine revelation in a dream from Tsurugaoka Hachimangu and established a small shrine at the site of Moto-Hachiman to invite the kami. The annual festival is still held on September 23.
