Kuwana Shrine (common name: Kasuga Shrine)

Japan, 46 Honmachi, Kuwana City, Mie Prefecture 511-0023

Kuwana Shrine consists of two shrines, Kuwana Shrine and Nakatomi Shrine. It is considered to be a rare shrine nationwide. It has a history of about 1900 years as Kuwana's oldest shrine, and is an indispensable presence when talking about Kuwana's history. Although many things were lost in the war, we still have tangible cultural assets such as the red seals of Muramasa and Honda Tadakatsu, and the seated statue of Tokugawa Ieyasu, as well as the Ishidori Festival, which is registered as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. It still holds intangible cultural assets.
