At a Glance
In the run-up to the Russo-Japanese War, Kodama Gentarō hid in the hills of Enoshima on Sundays to escape the visitors who chased him to his Kamakura villa. Islanders learned who he was, and after his death in 1906 they enshrined him here.

Facilities
Look closely at the komainu guardian lions on the approach: each holds a carved stone ball inside its mouth that can be rolled, a rare feature of the Taiwanese stonework donated in 1930.
Katase-Enoshima Station on the Odakyu line is about a 15-minute walk across the Enoshima bridge; Enoshima Station on the Enoden line and Shonan-Enoshima on the monorail are a little farther.
The shrine grounds were sold at auction in 2020 to a resort developer and the shrine's future is uncertain, so check its current status before making a special trip.
