天川神社
Kutsuno Yamanouchi Town, Shimotakai District
A Shrine Revered by the Sanada Clan
During the Bunroku era, Tennokawa Hyoejo enshrined Oyama Tsumi no Kami. In Keicho 14, the shrine was merged with the spirit of Take Minakata Tomi no Mikoto from a nearby village shrine. This land was under Matsushiro domain during Genna 8, when offerings like curtains and bows were made. The shrine was deeply revered by the Sanada clan of Matsushiro domain. In Kaei 1, Sakuma Shozan conducted a festival, and in Meiji 18, it was renamed Tennokawa Shrine from its former name, Suwa Shrine.
