Takayama Shrine

Takayama Shrine

Takayama Jinya is a location where the governors and officials of the Edo period conducted their administration, and the term "Jinya" refers collectively to the offices, the governor's residence, and the storehouses. The Hida official was promoted to the governor of Hida in the sixth year of the An'ei era (1777) and became an important directly governed area of the shogunate alongside the governor's offices in Kanto, the western regions, and Mino. At the end of the Edo period, among the more than 60 governor and official offices across the country, Takayama Jinya is the only one that has preserved its original buildings. A morning market is held in front of the Jinya, bustling with many shops. The history of Takayama Jinya began in the 5th year of the Genroku era (1692) when Hida Province became a directly governed area of the shogunate. The Kanamori family’s lower residence became the base of shogunate control, rice warehouses were relocated, and the foundation of the present-day Takayama Jinya was established. At this historic site, visitors can experience the atmosphere of the Edo period along with seasonal changes throughout the year.
