Nakano Hikawa Shrine is a Shinto shrine at the position like the middle of furniture of subway Oedo Line Higashi-Nakano Station and Nakano-sakaue Station.
Minamoto-no-Yorinobu requested division of a shrine's tutelary deity, in order to share it with Omiya Hikawa Shrine in 1030. And, it is an origin of this shrine that he built the small shrine. When Dokan Ota captured the Shakujii castle in 1477, he prayed for the victory in this shrine. And, after it had won a war, he seems to have built the building of a Shinto shrine.

中野氷川神社は地下鉄大江戸線 東中野駅と中野坂上駅の調度中間くらいの位置にある神社です。
1030年に源頼信が大宮氷川神社より御分霊を勧請し祠を建立したことがこの神社の由来です。1477年には太田道灌が石神井城を攻略する際に当社で戦勝祈願し、攻略後に社殿を造営したそうです。
