Takachiho Shrine, Shinto shrine in Takachiho, Japan.

Takachiho Shrine stands in Takachiho, Miyazaki Prefecture, with a main hall built in 1778 by order of Naito Masanaga, lord of Nobeoka. The five-bay nagare-zukuri hall has a copper roof with chigi and katsuogi, and its east-side panel carvings depict Mikeiri-no-Mikoto subduing the demon Kihachi. An Inari shrine is set into the west side.

According to shrine tradition, Mikeno-no-Mikoto built a sacred enclosure to worship the three generations of Hyuga deities and their consorts; his descendants served the shrine, and the first hall was built under Emperor Suinin. In the Heian period the shrine received court ranks, and in the 10th century the Takachiho clan made it head of 88 shrines across 18 districts. The main hall was rebuilt in 1778 under Naito Masanaga, lord of Nobeoka.

The shrine was long called Jissha Daimyōjin or Jissha-gū, renamed Mitai Shrine in 1871 and given its present name in 1895. In the kagura hall, four of the 33 Takachiho night kagura pieces are performed year-round for visitors: Tajikarao, Uzume, Totori and Goshintai. The full cycle is offered at the November 22–23 festival.

The shrine stands in the town centre, a short walk from the Takachiho bus terminal, and entry to the grounds is free. The main hall, a 1778 rebuilding by the Nobeoka lord Naito Masamichi, faces east and is reached past the married cedars in front of the worship hall. The kagura hall stages four of the 33 night-kagura dances for visitors throughout the year.

The two great cedars in front of the worship hall share a single root and are called the Meoto Sugi, or married cedars. A couple who join hands and walk around them three times is said to receive harmony in marriage, household safety and prosperous descendants. The shrine also holds that the Kaname Ishi of Kashima Shrine was a gift from here.
