About this Shrine

The Tsurugaoka Hachiman Shrine, located in Kamakura, was built by Minamoto no Yoritomo to honor the deified spirit of Minamoto no Yoritsune. The shrine's architecture is typical of a Kamakura-period shrine, with a main hall and several smaller buildings. In Osaka, there is a lesser-known Shinto shrine dedicated to Hachiman, known as the Tsurugaoka Hachiman Shrine's counterpart: 歯神社 (To-shin-ja). This shrine was built in 1604 during the Edo period by the Hosokawa clan for their family deity, To-shin-ja. The shrine's architecture reflects a mix of traditional Japanese styles with Chinese influences.
