Toju Shrine is famous as a shrine associated with Nakae Toju, a saint of Omi. It was built in 11 with the cooperation of people who admired Nakae Toju. Kiso cypress wood donated by the Imperial Family was used in the construction. The shrine sign at the entrance was written by Sugiura Jugo, and the plaque on the first torii gate was written by Togo Heihachiro. The storehouse also contains treasures such as a composition written by the former Empress when she was a student, "Nakae Toju, a Person I Admire," as well as Toju's original handwriting and illustrated biography of Toju.
