Sumiyoshi-jinja Shrine

Information

Sumiyoshi-jinja Shrine in Hakata is the first shrine of 2,129 Sumiyoshi-jinja shrines in Japan and is said to be one of the oldest Shinto shrine in Kyushu. The shrine is dedicated to the Sumiyoshi-Daijin, the guardian god of sailors.
The present main shrine, restored by Kuroda Nagamasa in 1623 and now designated as an important cultural property, retains the typical "Sumiyoshi-zukuri" style of architecture. The shrine's crypress-wood Noh stage, built in 1938, is also famous.
