Ōharano Shrine
Ōhorano Shrine (大原野神社 Ōharano jinja?) is a Shinto shrine located in Nishikyō-ku, Kyoto Prefecture, Japan.
Ōhorano is dedicated to the Fujiwara tutelary kami, Amenokoyane, who was said to have assisted in the founding of the state.[1]
History
The shrine became the object of Imperial patronage during the early Heian period.[2] In 965, Emperor Murakami ordered that Imperial messengers were sent to report important events to the guardian kami of Japan. These heihaku were initially presented to 16 shrines including the Ōharano Shrine.[3]
From 1871 through 1946, the Ōhorano Shrine was officially designated one of the Kanpei-chūsha (官幣中社?), meaning that it stood in the second rank of government supported shrines.[4]
