The Fuji Sengen Shrine (富士浅間神社, Fuji Sengen Jinja) is a Shinto shrine located in Ōsu in central Nagoya, central Japan.

History

The shrine dates back to 1495, when a portion of the god of Sengen Shrine in Suruga province was solicited to come down and be worshiped. Preserved there is the Yugai-kyakutsuki no tsubo (lidded-and-legged urn), which was found at the nearby ancient grave mound of Nagoyayama. The current shrine buildings date to the Shōwa era.
