Kashimori Shrine

Kashimori Shrine, Shinto shrine in Gifu, Japan

Kashimori Shrine is a small Shinto shrine in Gifu featuring modest wooden structures and a traditional roof with curved tiles. The grounds include a main worship hall, several smaller buildings, gravel pathways, and old trees scattered throughout the site.

According to the shrine's tradition, it was established in this spot during the reign of Emperor Keikō. When Oda Nobunaga opened his free market, the market god was enshrined at the shrine's sacred hackberry tree. In the Edo period the temple Kinpōzan Zuiryū-ji served as its jingū-ji, and after the separation of Shinto and Buddhism the shrine became the tutelary deity of the district.

The shrine's name comes from the sacred kashi tree, and its enshrined deity Ichihaya-no-mikoto is the child of the gods of nearby Inaba and Kogane shrines, linking the three. A subsidiary shrine honors Oda Nobunaga, who placed the market god beneath the shrine's enoki tree when he established free markets; the tree's descendant, the Misono Enoki, is a city historic site. The Gifu Festival on April 5 is shared with the two related shrines.

The nearest bus stop is Gifu Bus's Yanagase stop, about eight minutes on foot from the shrine. The grounds are laid out as Kasamori Park, and the shrine stands at the foot of Kaminokano-yama (Suido-yama). The Gifu Festival, shared with Inaba Shrine and Kogane Shrine, is held each April.

According to legend, the mythical horse Tenma landed behind the shrine and left a hoof print in stone that visitors can still see today. This stone is considered a special symbol connected to the shrine's blessings.
