【History of SHINMEIGU(Shrine）】

During the Edo period, the Shibata domain considered rice cultivation to be its primary industry. He was actively engaged in river flood control projects and new rice field development. SHINMEIGU was founded in 1661 when the third lord of the Shibata domain prayed to Toyouke no Omikami from ISE JINGU (ISE Grand Shrine). The shrine at that time was located in a different location.
In 1748, when the seventh lord of Shibata was rebuilding the shrines and temples in his territory, he built Shinmei Shrine at its current location to pray for a good harvest and safety.
The current shrine building was a new worship hall built in 1982. The main shrine was completed in 1988.
The hangar on the left side of the shrine building houses the architrave of the SHIMOMACH WA-GUMI, one of the architraves that will be shown at the Shibata Festival.

【 神明宮的历史 】

江户时代，新発田藩以水稻种植为主要产业。他积极从事河流防洪工程和新稻田开发。神明宫是于 1661 年，新発田藩第三代藩主向伊势神宫的丰受大神祈愿而创立的。当时的神社位于不同的位置。
1748年，第七代新発田藩主重建领地内的神社寺院时，在现址建造了神明神社，祈求五谷丰登、平安无事。
现在的神社建筑是1982年新建的拜殿，正殿于1988年竣工。神社建筑左侧的机库内设有下町わ組的门楣，这是将在新発田祭上展示的门楣之一。
