History and things to know
According to shrine tradition, it was founded in Ōnin 2 (1468) and was revered as the guardian shrine of the former Terajima Shinden; it was formerly called Dairokuten-sha. With the separation of Shinto and Buddhism in early Meiji it took its present name; in Shōwa 42 the shrine building was rebuilt in reinforced concrete, and the following year a grand festival was held to mark 500 years since its founding.
