Kasama Inari Shrine is one of the three major Inari shrines in Japan, along with Fushimi in Kyoto and Yutoku in Saga, and has a history of more than 1,350 years.
The deity is Ukanomitama-no-kami. During the Edo period (1603-1867), the shrine was highly revered by successive feudal lords, who donated the shrine grounds, pavilions, and other facilities. The shrine is still well known to many people today as Kurumoshita Inari and Monzaburo Inari.
