History
This shrine, as an ancient shrine enshrining Gozu Tenno, has gathered the faith of local people since ancient times. I have memories of participating in the festival of this shrine when I was a child. Although its founding is unknown, it has been revered for a long time as a place for local people to pray for exorcism and good health. It is particularly said to have benefits for family safety, attracting many worshipers. It is a community-based shrine where vibrant festivals are also held.
