It is said that the ancient gozoku Ozu clan was enshrined. Since ancient times, Takauji Ashikaga has been revered by the imperial family and the martial arts gates, and it is said that Takauji Ashikaga strictly prohibited the intrusion of soldiers and horses into the sacred precincts during the Northern and Southern Dynasties War. The main shrine is an important cultural property, built in the late Muromachi period, around 1521-1527 (around Oei), Sanmasha style, Mukai Ichima, and cypress bark.
