Upon his death, Ieyasu left a massive collection of heirlooms, including more than 1,000 swords, and numerous ceramics, paintings, works of calligraphy, and tea instruments. The collection was divided between the Kii, Mito, Owari, and shogunal houses, with some objects being interned with Ieyasu in his grave.<ref>Morgan Pitelka.

Ieyasu was originally buried at [[Sunpu Castle]], and enshrined as a [[Shinto]] deity, Tôshô Daigongen, at a shrine established nearby and called [[Kunozan Toshogu|Kunôzan Tôshôgû]]. [[Tokugawa Iemitsu]], Ieyasu's grandson, later established in [[1636]] a shrine in [[Nikko|Nikkô]] (to the north of Edo). Ieyasu's remains were transferred to this new [[Nikko Toshogu|Nikkô Tôshôgû]], which then became the chief shrine dedicated to the deified Ieyasu.
