Konda Hachimangu Shrine
Konda Hachimangu Shrine is a hachimangu where Sumiyoshi Okami is enshrined and whose enshrined deities are Emperor Ojin, Emperor Chuai and Empress Jingu.
It has been worshipped by the locals from around Kawachi area not only because it grants the wishes of worshipers for safe childbirth and protection against misfortune, but also because Emperor Ojin is the deity of commerce and industry and the parent deity of learning. In 1196, Minamoto no Yorimoto repaired the main shrine building and other parts of the shrine. The mikoshi made of lacquered wood and gilt-bronze fittings that was donated at that time has been designated as a national treasure.
The autumn festival is held at this shrine every September 15th, and the and the "Owatari," where the portable shrines are carried up to the bank of Ojin-tenno-ryo Kofun, continues to this day.
