In the early Edo period, a person named Tokuemon Kawamura, who occupied 1500 stones, received a spirit from Toyoke Daijingu Shrine in outer shrine of Ise-jingu Shrine and worshiped them in his own residence in Koishikawa.

It was later relocated to the mansion and moved to the current Tatekawa, Sumida-ku and opened to ordinary townspeople.

Even now, there is Mototoku Inari Shrine in Tatekawa, Sumida-ku.

The reason why there are many Inari Shrines around Ningyocho is that it was originally a town of Daimyo mansion.

It seems that there was a residence of Hosokawa, and it is said that Hosokawa was invited to worship and worship more spirits from Mototoku Inari Shrine.

At Mototoku Inari Shrine, the god of learning enshrined in the same town, Tsunashiki Temma Shrine, is joined and continues to this day.

That's why the god of going on to school, the prosperity of industry and business, and the benefits of protective god against fire outbreaks are also conveyed.

God's crest

It is a "hugging rice to plum bowl" crest that combines the "hugging rice crest" of Inari Shrine and the "ume bowl crest" of patron saint of academics.

It's exactly the guardian deity of Nihonbashihamacho.
