The origins of Toga Shrine are unknown. The shrine claims to have been founded in the Taihō period (701-704 AD) by Emperor Mommu. It is located in an area of eastern Mikawa with a favorable climate, which has been settled since at least the Jōmon period. One of the treasures of the shrine is a Yayoi period dōtaku bronze ritual object, possibly recovered from a burial mound in the area. The shrine first appears in historical documentation in the early Heian period Nihon Montoku Tennō Jitsuroku in an entry dated 850 and subsequently in the Nihon Sandai Jitsuroku in an entry dated 864. The shrine is mentioned as the ichinomiya of Mikawa Province in the 927 Engishiki records. During the Sengoku period, it was battleground between the forces of Tokugawa Ieyasu and the imagawa clan. It was given a small stipend of 100 koku by the Edo period Tokugawa shogunate. With the establishment of State Shinto after the Meiji restoration, the Toga Shrine was designated as a National Shrine, 3rd rank (国幣小社}, Kokuhei Shōsha). in the modern system of ranked Shinto Shrines.
