History

The royal family helped the shrine in the Heian period.[2] In 965, Emperor Murakami of Japan sent messages, called heihaku, to tell important events to the guardian kami (spirits) of the country. At first, 16 shrines got the messages. In 991, Emperor Ichijō added three more shrines, including Yoshida Shrine.[3]

From 1871 to 1946, Yoshida Shrine was a Kanpei-chūsha (官幣中社) in the Modern system of ranked Shinto shrines.[4] Yoshida Kanetomo, who began Yoshida Shinto, is buried here.
