History

This shrine which is called “Takenobu-Inari shrine” was founded in 859(the beginning of Heian Era) by FUJIWARA no Yoshisuke, who was aristocratic.
When you see an old map, you can find that there used to be the property of temple. It was also founded by FUJIWARA no Yoshisuke, and was called “Enmei-in temple(延命院)” , which means “longevity”, that is, it was a medical facility. He founded this building for people’s health and long life. Also, there was a school near here, so our ancestors put this shrine as a guardian of these places.
There used to be villas for aristocracy and central government, like today’s Tokyo. It is natural because Kyoto was the capital of Japan, and here was the very central area.
Later, a person whose name was FUJIWARA no Takenobu greatly worshiped this shrine and managed to aggrandize a power of this God. That is why this shrine is now called “Takenobu –inari shrine”, and has been respected since foundation, for 1200 years.
The foundation FUJIWARA no Yoshisuke named his family and relatives as a head of the clan. So this shrine is related to “naming” even now. A lot of couples visit the shrine to decide their child’s name.

御神威・御神徳

The faith in Inari God is classic and universal for Japanese people, and it is the prayer against lives which is the most important for all people. Every living thing can be born and be brought up because there exists mystic power that is beyond the confines of human knowledge in this universe.
The deity of Takenobu-inari shrine has been believed as a deity that protects everything regarding human lives, health(physically and mentally), harvest, wealth, livelihood and stuff like that.
In ancient times, the God of Inari was enshrined as the god of harvest such as rice which is the origin of nurturing our lives. But as the society, culture, commerce and industry has been developing, Inari god also has been believed as the god of business prosperity and promotion of learning.
Takenobu-inari jinja has been deeply believed as the god of our living and health since founding. This god gives us profound protection such as safety in the household, healthy long life, ill recovery, traffic safety, avoiding fire disaster and theft and so forth.
Fushimi Inari shrine, the headquarter of all Inari shrines, has some enshrined mounds of Takenobu inari jinja shrine in the precinct.
