History
Toshogu Shrine on Horaiji Mountain is a mausoleum enshrining Tokugawa Ieyasu. Nestled in the deep mountains of Mikawa, it receives many worshippers honoring Ieyasu's great deeds. Horaiji Mountain has long been known as a sacred site of Shugendo practice, and the establishment of Toshogu on this spiritual mountain granted it further divine efficacy. As a historic shrine connected to the Tokugawa family, it gathers the faith of those seeking the blessings of martial fortune and good fortune.
