Yamada Tenmagu Shrine
In 1672, Tokugawa Ietsuna, the 4th shogun, encouraged education and learning. The lord of Owari domain, Tokugawa Mitsutomo, valued education and decided to enshrine Sugawara no Michizane's divine spirit in Yamada, now part of Aichi Prefecture. Yamada Tenmangu Shrine became a guardian deity protecting people from misfortunes and bringing blessings. It was located in the inauspicious direction of Nagoya Castle, making it highly revered.
