Toyokuni Shrine, Shinto shrine in Kanazawa, Japan

Toyokuni Shrine is a small Shinto shrine on Mount Utatsu in Kanazawa with simple wooden gates and a roof covered in dark tiles. The grounds feature traditional Japanese architecture including a torii gate at the entrance and stone statues of foxes and lions that guard the space.

In 1616 Maeda Toshitsune, following the dying wish of Maeda Toshiie, secretly enshrined a figure of Toyotomi Hideyoshi at a Buddhist temple on Mount Utatsu, calling it Sannōsha to avoid the Tokugawa shogunate's scrutiny. It became a village shrine in 1873, moved to Tono (now Owari-chō) in 1887, and was moved to its present site and renamed Toyokuni Shrine in 1908.

The shrine's name, Toyokuni, is the deified title Toyokuni Daimyōjin granted to Toyotomi Hideyoshi. Maeda Toshitsune, third lord of Kaga Domain, is worshipped here alongside him, and successive lords honoured the shrine as their ubusunagami, guardian of their birthplace. Its festival was once celebrated as Kanazawa's city-wide matsuri.

The shrine stands on Mount Utatsu in Higashi-Mikage-machi, reached by walking up the hill from central Kanazawa. Its annual festival day is May 2. Utatsu Shrine and Atago Shrine lie nearby, so the three can be visited on one walk.

The shrine was called Sannō-sha during the Edo period to avoid the Tokugawa shogunate's disapproval of Hideyoshi worship, and only took the name Toyokuni Shrine in 1908. Its festival once drew Kanazawa as a whole and was counted among the city's grand celebrations.
