In the Hagiwara Tenjin area, Hagiwara Temple, which is said to have been founded by the monk Gyoki in the Nara period, has several sub-temples, and has been worshiped as a sacred place for the gods and Buddha since ancient times. Legend has it that ``Hagiwara Tenjin'' began when Lord Michizane was enshrined on the grounds more than 1,000 years ago. Later, during the battle between the Northern and Southern Courts, the area fell under fire, and ``Hagiwara Tenjin'' was rebuilt on the ruins, and the six temples that made up ``Hagiwara Temple'' were moved to a nearby village. The name of the enshrined place, ``Hara-dera,'' is thought to be an abbreviation of ``Hagi'' from ``Hagiwara-dera.'' Additionally, the old main shrine, which has been preserved next to the main shrine, is a 350-year-old building that faithfully retains the Momoyama style, and is open to the public at all times.
