About this Shrine

Located in the scenic Rishiri Island,鹿沼出雲神社 (Rishiriso Natsu-no-Miya Shrine) is a Shinto shrine dedicated to the kami of Rishiri Island's natural hot springs and wetlands. The shrine's architecture reflects its historical ties to the Japanese government, with influences from traditional Shinto and Western styles. Founded during the Meiji period in 1870, it is one of the few Shinto shrines built by foreigners.

Cultural Significance

This shrine is connected to the mythology of the Ryukyu Kingdom, with its kami believed to have originated from the sea goddess Amaterasu. Locals often visit during the summer months to pray for a bountiful harvest and good fortune in fishing.
