A historic shrine dedicated to Takakurashita, the god of warehouses.

Built in 1574. The main shrine, Hachiman Shrine, and Kasuga Shrine are all painted, and the characteristics of the Momoyama period, such as the carvings inside the tomata, are clearly displayed, and they have been designated as important cultural properties of the country.
Being the god of warehouses, many people from companies involved in logistics and warehousing gather from all over the country during the Kurahi Festival (July 13th every year) to perform rituals to pray for the development of the warehousing and transportation industry.
During the autumn moon-viewing festival, there is a tradition of making a hole in an eggplant and looking at the moon through the hole.
At the Ichino Torii gate of Takakura Shrine, there is a large zelkova, one of the five famous Takakura trees, and within the precincts there are a Shibunashigaya and a couple's large cedar.
