History and things to know

According to the official guide, it was founded in Meiji 18 with Sanjō Sanetsumu as its kami and was ranked as a Bekkaku Kanpeisha. In Taishō 4, to coincide with the enthronement ceremony of Emperor Taishō, Sanetomi was enshrined together with him as the second kami. The shrine's name comes from Nashinoki-chō, the former place name where the Sanjō family residence stood.
