A shrine enshrining the Sakurai Tokugawa family in the generation 々

Original Text

It is a shrine that enshrines the Sakurai Tokugawa family, the owner of Amagasaki Castle. Tadaoki Sakurai, the last castle owner of Amagasaki Castle, seems to be the founder of the Japanese Red Cross Society and is enshrined in this shrine. As the name of Sakurai suggests, the company has a cherry blossom design in a color 々 place, and it's fun to look for it. After Sakurai's name, many people visit as a sacred place for entertainers of the same name, and the votive tablets have related wishes. Amagasaki Castle's Onigawara is also placed, and the site itself is not large, but ...

The deity is the Lord of the castle, Mr. Sakurai 々

The deity is Mr. Sakurai 々 The Lord of the castle and the old township shrine. It was founded in 1882 (Meiji 15) and is a relatively new shrine. There was Amagasaki / Yama Inari Shrine at Setsusha / Suesha. It seems that it has something to do with Higashi Osaka's Hiyama Inari Shrine, but it was not written in particular in the history. I was a little surprised because I visited Kasayama Inari Shrine in Higashi Osaka the day before visiting Sakurai Shrine. It is near Amagasaki Castle. There was no parking lot.

It's near Amagasaki Castle Ruins.

It is next to the Amagasaki Castle Ruins across the road, and the big sign stands out, so you can easily see it. When you read the instruction manual, it seems to be a shrine related to the origin of the Japanese Red Cross. In addition, because he was the same surname as the members of Arashi, many votive tablets filled out wishes related to Arashi were seen.

It was good to be able to worship comfortably under a quiet environment

After going to Amagasaki Castle Ruins, I visited this shrine nearby. It was about 18:00, so it was good that no one was there and I was able to worship comfortably in a quiet environment.

ぎゅっと condensed.

It is a shrine within walking distance from Hanshin Amagasaki Station. Various shrines were tightly condensed on the site that was not so large. It seems to be related to the Japanese Red Cross, and I felt that I knew the unknown side of Amagasaki again.
