Ikuta Shrine (生田神社, Ikuta-jinja) is a Shinto shrine in the Chūō Ward of Kobe, Japan, and is possibly among the oldest shrines in the country.
It was founded by Empress Jingu when she returned from the Three Han (三韓, Korea) campaign.[1][2]
She was nearly shipwrecked but managed to survive thanks to praying to Watatsumi, and she made the shrine to honor him.[2] Ikasuri Shrine and Watatsumi Shrine were both also made at the same time by the Empress.[2]
It contains the Settsu Sannomiya
