御朱印が頂ける神社。直書きして頂ける。御朱印は拝殿右手の御朱印授与所にて。オリジナル御朱印帳もあり。(16×11サイズ) 朱塗の大鳥居、社殿も大きく圧巻。境内もとても広いが職員の方が暑い中清掃しており、とても綺麗。鳥居をくぐると伊能忠敬像や神輿庫などがある。本殿横を抜けると横綱力士碑なるものがあり、碑の大きさは流石の横綱級。ど迫力なので見てみる価値はあり。その他境内社も多数鎮座している。最寄駅は門前仲町駅。真っ直ぐ向かえば徒歩5分ほど。

2024.6 東京十社のひとつ。通称「深川八幡宮」とも言う。鎮座400年記念事業として、本殿の改修や客殿新築、社務所移転などが行われます。一部、工事も始まっているので、これから数年後には今と違う姿になるのだと思います。江戸勧進相撲発祥の地として歴代横綱の顕彰碑があります。元々は別表神社に指定されていましたが、2017年に神社本庁から離脱し、単立神社となっています。事件など色々ありましたので、令和の大改修で綺麗になるのを願います。【御祭神】応神天皇（誉田別命）外８柱【由緒】寛永４年（1627年）、当時永代島と呼ばれていた現在地に御神託により創建される。周辺の砂州一帯を埋め立て、社地と氏子の居住地を開き、総じて六万五百八坪の社有地を得る。世に「深川の八幡様」と親しまれ、今も昔も変わらぬ信仰を集める「江戸最大の八幡様」です。江戸時代には、源氏の氏神である八幡大神を殊の外尊崇した徳川将軍家の手厚い保護を受け、明治維新に際しては朝廷が当宮を准勅祭社に御治定になり、勅使を遣わされ幣帛を賜り、新しい御代の弥栄を祈念されました。また、庶民の信仰は江戸の昔から大きな歴史の変転を経て現代に至まで変わることなく篤く受け継がれ、今も善男善女の参拝は絶えず、特に毎月１日、15日、28日の月次祭は縁日として大変な賑わいを見せています。【参拝用駐車場】あり

東京神社十社の1つでもあるこちらにお伺いさせていただきました。東京メトロ東西線の門前仲町駅から徒歩10分以内です。深川不動堂のすぐ隣でもあります。赤い大鳥居が立派で、入ると横綱力士碑、巨人力士身長碑などがあります。富岡八幡宮は江戸勧進相撲(大相撲の前身)発祥の神社です。反対側に伊能忠敬像があります。伊能忠敬公は当時の深川黒江町(現在の門前仲町)に居住していて、全国測量の旅に氏神であるこちらを参拝してから出発しています。拝殿は鳥居と同じく赤を基調とした派手な造りになってます。社務所で夏詣の御朱印を拝受しました。夏らしい涼しげな色使いの見事な御朱印でした。
