It enshrines the Kusanagi sword, one of the three imperial regalia. A great camphor said to be over a thousand years old stands in its grounds, and a deep forest survives in the middle of the city. Nobunaga prayed here for victory before Okehazama, and the Nobunaga wall he dedicated after winning still stands.
