宗像大社沖津宮遙拝所
大島北側にある沖ノ島(宗像大社沖津宮)の遙拝所。島全体がご神体である沖ノ島は厳格な禁忌によって古くから一般人の渡島は禁止。そのためこの地から遥か沖に浮かぶ島を拝してきた。遙拝所への石段脇に立つ「寛延3年(1750)」と刻まれた石碑から、江戸中期には遙拝所が造られたと分かる。現在の遙拝所は昭和8年(1933)の建築。天気の良い日にはここから約50km離れた水平線に浮かぶ沖ノ島を拝することができる。世界遺産“「神宿る島」宗像・沖ノ島と関連遺産群”の構成資産の1つ。

九州本土から約60km沖に浮かぶ周囲4kmの「神宿る島」と呼ばれる島。宗像三女神の1柱である田心姫神[たごりひめのかみ]を祭る沖津宮であり、小屋島、御門柱、天狗岩の3つの岩礁をもつ島全体がご神体だ。航海の道標となり、皇室・国家の安泰を願って国家祭祀が行われた。社殿が立つ島南西側の中腹には22もの祭祀遺跡が残り、祭祀の変遷を示して国指定史跡に、遺跡から出土した神宝約8万点は国宝に指定。今も厳格な禁忌が受け継がれ一般の入島は不可。世界遺産“「神宿る島」宗像・沖ノ島と関連遺産群”の構成資産。
