About this Shrine

One Butsugi Shrine is a Shinto shrine located in the Yamagata Prefecture, but some sources incorrectly list Miyagi as its location. Built in 1868, it is dedicated to One Kunitake no Okami, also known as One Yatsuhime, with additional kami including Izumo and Inari. The shrine features a unique building style typical of northern Japan, showcasing a combination of the traditional Northern Japanese architectural style, such as the 'tsukubai' or water basin, along with elements common to other regions.

Cultural Significance

One of the unique cultural connections to this shrine is its association with a traditional Northern Japanese folk tale involving water and purification. The shrine's main hall features intricate carvings representing various animals, symbolizing protection and good fortune.
