History
Enshrined in the highlands of Kumage-gun, Takamatsu Hachiman Shrine has been deeply venerated as a sacred place of Hachiman faith since antiquity. People of the mountain-protected village and those who work the blessed earth come to center their hearts before this shrine. Its precincts are as pure as the air atop high mountain peaks.
