204 ~ Kunimori Jinja

 

Japanese Name:  国守神社
Romanized Reading: Kunimori Jinja
English Translation: Country Protector Shrine
Size: Small
Deity: Inari
Fox Count: 6
First Visit: 3-Sep-2018
Location: Nagahama-Minamigofukuchou
Address:
10 Kōenchō, Nagahama-shi, Shiga-ken 526-0065
Coordinates:
35.3779508,136.2605961

A small fox shrine in Hou Kouen (豊公園 "Bountiful Park") next to Nagahama Castle. A total of six tiny porcelain foxes reside within. Although it does not bear "Inari" in its name, I'm reasonably certain that it's an Inari shrine due to the presence of foxes, as well as the emblem above the altar, which is kinda faded, but still looks a lot like the Inari emblem.
