At the time of Hideyoshi Toyotomi's invasion of Korea, Kiyomasa Kato and Katagiri Katsumoto visited the shrine, and the "Yumigake no Matsu" (Pine of the Archer) of that time is in the precincts.
He was pleased with the series of victories at the beginning of the war, and was awarded the Onsho (reward grants) such as the shrine crest of paulownia. He is worshiped as the "guardian god of the improvement of martial arts and sports" and the "god who wins the battle.".
That's why there is Katsu-mamori as amulets.
