History

Byakko

Kanegasaki-gu is a shrine established in 1890 at the ruins of Kanagasaki Castle, a site of the tragic Northern and Southern Courts conflict. Listed among the fifteen shrines of the Kenmu Restoration, it held the rank of a government-sponsored medium shrine. Prince Takanaga is the principal deity, with Prince Tsuneyoshi enshrined in 1892. The shrine is also known as the Shrine of Love owing to Prince Takanaga's romantic legend and the Hanakae Festival tradition that began in the 1900s.

General

本殿奥の「花換の小道」を進むと金ヶ崎城跡の月見御殿跡まで登れますが、急な坂道と石段があるため、歩きやすい靴で参拝することをおすすめします。
