Shiroyama Hachiman Shrine

In the entire Joyama Forest area, there used to be a castle called Suemori Castle, which was built by Oda Nobuhide. After Nobuhide's passing, his son Nobuyuki took over, but he was defeated by his older brother Nobunaga, leading to the castle's abandonment in just about ten years.
On the site of this castle, the Joyama Hachimangū Shrine was established. The shrine attracts many visitors during events such as the first shrine visit of the New Year, the summer ritual of passing through the ring of sedge, and the autumn visit of three and five-year-old children for blessings.
