Sahimeyama-jinja Shrine

Shrine
Sahimeyama-jinja Shrine is located in the area of the world heritage site, Iwami Ginzan Silver Mine in Omori Town, Ohda City, Shimane Prefecture. The enshrined deity is Kanayamahiko, protector of the mine. It is a mountain shrine located about 200 meters from the Ryugenji Mabu mine shaft which has the largest shrine building in the whole country. It is said that the Ouchi clan of the Suo Province built the shrine. Two competing theories claim that it was built either in 1434 or during the 16th century. Locally referred to as Sanjin-san (shrine of the mountain god), it is an old shrine revered by mountaineers, miners and refinery workers.
