元宮神社

Motomiya Shrine in the Kitawari district of Miyata Village was originally formed by merging several shrines in the area into the Suwa Shrine.
Located on a slope surrounded by orchards, the approach to the shrine features several auxiliary shrines.
The worship hall is an irimoya-zukuri with tile roofing.

Behind the worship hall is a large reinforced concrete structure housing three main shrines: Suwa Shrine, Hachiman Shrine, and Tenjin Shrine.
The largest, Suwa Shrine, dates back to the Edo period and features a karahafu-irimoya-zukuri style with shingle roofing.
It is renowned for its beautiful carvings that reflect the styles of the Momoyama period to the early Edo period.
The adjacent Hachiman Shrine and Tenjin Shrine are both nagare-zukuri style.
