Shinmei Shrine is Soja of Katsuyama sanchou, three districts of Katsuyama, and is commonly known as its popular name, “Oshinmesan”. Soja refers to a shrine enshrining several gods together. Since its relocation to the present location in 1609, it has been repeatedly rebuilt after suffering from several fire damages. After the Meiji era, it has enshrined Hachiman-sha Shrine and Toshogu Shrine. The shrine office building used to be the auditorium of Seikido, a clan school of Katsuyama Domain. It was dismantled and reconstructed at the present location. In the precincts remains a stone lantern made of Shakudani stone with the inscription of 1691 on it.
