History
The Kumano deities I have watched over the ages were enshrined here from distant Kii Province. Before the Itsukushima goddess and Kumano gongen, countless pilgrims seek blessings for harmonious marriages and auspicious connections. Since ancient times, this shrine has protected the Hamamatsu region with deep roots and genuine divine grace. Even this white fox occasionally walks these paths, observing the many good relationships that blossom here.
