Last update :

Takeda Shrine venerates Takeda Shingen, a famed warlord from the Sengoku period. It is said to offer blessings for prosperity in business, good luck, victory fortune, and protection from evil. The shrine is particularly famous for its victory fortune blessing and also for blessing those who strive to overcome themselves.

The precincts of the shrine are the site of Tsutsujigasaki Residence, the dwelling of the three generations of the Kai Takeda clan (Nobutora, Shingen, and Katsuyori), where you can see the moats, earthen walls, and wells from the Sengoku period. The Treasure Hall displays items related to the Takeda family, such as swords, armors, and helmets.

Also, in the precincts, there is a "three-leaf pine" which turns golden when its leaves fall in autumn. As the pine leaves have three parts instead of two, carrying these leaves is believed to bring financial luck.
