Dedicated to the spirits of Emperor Gotoba and other members of the imperial family who died in exile, this shrine serves as a place of remembrance for tragic imperial history. The kami enshrined here are particularly associated with political upheaval and the consequences of the Jōkyū War of 1221. Visitors come to pay respects to these fallen imperial figures and seek protection from political misfortune, while also honoring the complex relationship between imperial power and divine authority in Japanese culture.
