History
Standing in the Poronai lands, this shrine has watched over those engaged in mining and resource extraction. Deep within Naganuma, it is a sacred place radiating the power of the earth itself. During the prosperous coal mining era, countless wishes and the sweat of workers seeped into this soil. Even now, it remains the spiritual support for all who labor.
