三島大社は歴史の古い神社で、758年(天平宝字2年)の資料に「伊豆三島神」という表記があるそうです。
北条政子が献上した梅蒔絵(うめまきえ)手箱や、源頼家の自筆の書などがあり、見る価値の高い展示が多くありました。

HOJYO Masako (1157 - 1225), who was the legal wife of MINAMOTO-NO Yoritomo (1123 - 1160), the first "Shogun" in the Kamakura Age (1185 - 1333), dedicated the "Ume Makie-Tebako", the cosmetic box with gold lacquer of Japanese apricot flowers.
