History and things to know
According to the shrine's tradition, although the time of its founding is not certain, shrine buildings are said to have been built in the reign of Emperor Yūryaku. The Shoku Nihongi records a conferral of rank in Enryaku 1, and it was later listed as a Myōjin Taisha. In Genki 2 (1571) the shrine buildings were lost in the fires of Oda Nobunaga's attack on Nagashima, and in Keichō 10 (1605) they were restored with a donation from Honda Tadakatsu, lord of the Kuwana domain.
