The shrine's architecture and design are characteristic of traditional Japanese Shintoism, with a unique main hall featuring a distinctive curved roof. According to local legend, the shrine was built by the Minamoto clan, who were instrumental in the Genpei War and later established the Kamakura shogunate.
