History
Ono Minato Jinja is enshrined in the Ono district of Kanazawa. True to its name meaning "port," this area has long flourished as a port town with strong devotion to the sea deity. Known as a port of call for kitamaebune trading ships, it has a history of sailors praying for safe voyages and merchants wishing for prosperous business. Even today, local fishing industry workers and transport companies frequently visit. In the pleasant salt-tinged precincts, one can give thanks for the blessings of the sea.
