Script error: No such module "Nihongo". is a Shinto shrine located in Nishikyō-ku, Kyoto Prefecture, Japan.

Ōharano is dedicated to the Fujiwara tutelary kami, Ame-no-Koyane, who was said to have assisted in the founding of the state.[1]

History

The shrine became the object of Imperial patronage during the early Heian period.[2] In 965, Emperor Murakami ordered that Imperial messengers were sent to report important events to the guardian kami of Japan. These heihaku were initially presented to 16 shrines including the Ōharano Shrine.[3]

From 1871 through 1946, the Ōhorano Shrine was officially designated one of the Script error: No such module "Nihongo"., meaning that it stood in the second rank of government supported shrines.[4]
