History and things to know
According to the shrine's tradition, it was established in Kanji 6 (1092): Minamoto no Yoshiie, victorious in the Later Three Years' War, is said to have welcomed Hachiman to this place with the moon banner, one of the banners that had been dedicated at Myōken-san in Chichibu. Later the Shibuya clan revered it as the guardian shrine of their family, and as the name of Shibuya Konnōmaru spread, it came to be called Konnō Hachimangū.
