Nōhi Gokoku Shrine
Nōhi Gokoku Shrine (濃飛護國神社, Nōhi Gokoku Jinja) is a Shinto shrine located in Ōgaki, Gifu Prefecture, Japan. It is located near the base of Ōgaki Castle. The shrine is designated to the approximately 19,000 people from the Seino and Hida regions of Gifu Prefecture who died during wars. Because it represented only a small portion of the prefecture, it was eventually replaced by the Gifu Gokoku Shrine.
