The former head priest of this shrine, Mochitsura Hashimoto, was the captain of I-58, the submarine that torpedoed and sank the U.S.S. Indianapolis on July 30, 1945, a few days after it had transported the materials for the Little Boy bomb across the Pacific. Hashimoto supported the effort to clear the name of the commanding officer of the Indianapolis, which succeeded on October 30, 2000 when he was exonerated of his 1946 court-martial conviction. Hashimoto had died five days prior on October 25. May the souls of all those who perished in the War in the Pacific...

Absolutely GORGEOUS place to view plum blossoms. Was there March 15, 2014, right as the plums were just really getting going. The main temple was free, but you could pay to go into the gardens. Children under 6 were free, and us adults only had to pay 500 yen each to walk around a lovely lake. As it is a bit off the beaten track, there were very few people there, so we had an excellent time taking pictures of gorgeous views without anyone else in the frame. Just a great place to visit, a great day activity. The...

梅宮大社(うめのみやたいしゃ)。京都市右京区梅津フケノ川町。

式内社(名神大)四座、旧社格は官幣中社。現在は単立神社。 二十二社(下八社)の一社。

御祭神: 現在の祭神は、次の本殿4柱・相殿4柱の計8柱。相殿4柱は仁寿年間(851年-854年)の合祀という。 本殿:酒解神(さかとけのかみ) - 大山祇神(おおやまづみのかみ)にあてられ、酒造の守護神とされる。 大若子神(おおわくこのかみ/おおわくごのかみ) - 瓊々杵尊(ににぎのみこと)にあてられる。 小若子神(こわくこのかみ/こわくごのかみ) - 彦火火出見尊(ひこほほでみのみこと)にあてられる。 酒解子神(さかとけこのかみ) - 木花咲耶姫命(このはなのさくやひめのみこと)にあてられる。 相殿:嵯峨天皇 - 第52代天皇。 橘嘉智子(檀林皇后) - 嵯峨天皇皇后。社伝では、梅宮大社に祈願して仁明天皇を授かったという。 仁明天皇 - 第54代天皇で、嵯峨天皇皇子。 橘清友公 - 橘嘉智子の父。

主神である酒解神については、「サカトケ」の字義を「辟解」として悪霊を祓う神とする説、「堺解」として境界に居て悪霊を鎮める神とする説が挙げられるが不詳。また神格としては、橘氏が奉斎したことから橘氏の祖神とする説のほか、大山祇神にあてる説があるが、こちらも明らかではない。 とあります。

資料によると、 京都市西部の梅津の地に鎮座する、四姓(源平藤橘)の1つの橘氏の氏神として知られる神社。元々は奈良時代に南方の綴喜郡井手町付近に創祀されたといわれ、のち平安時代前期に橘嘉智子(檀林皇后)によって現在地に遷座したとされる。

現在地への遷座に関わった橘嘉智子は、嵯峨天皇(第52代)の皇后として仁明天皇(第54代)を出産し、外戚としての橘氏の中興に貢献した人物である。社伝では、橘嘉智子には子がなかったが梅宮神に祈願したことで皇子を授かったといい、その伝承に因んで現在も子授け・安産の神として信仰される。また祭神の名から酒造の神としても信仰されており、酒にまつわる多くの神事が現在も行われている。そのほか、梅宮大社の例祭は「梅宮祭」として古くから知られ、特に平安時代当時には古雅な祭として有名であった。

梅宮大社の創建は旧記等が散逸しているため詳細には明らかでないが、神社側では由緒を次のように伝える。まず奈良時代に県犬養三千代(橘三千代、橘諸兄母)によって山城国相楽郡井手庄(現・京都府綴喜郡井手町付近)に祀られたのが創祀であるとし、その子の橘諸兄によって氏神として祀られたという。さらに天平宝字年間(757年 -...
