Taga Shrine is a Shinto shrine in Shiga prefecture, dedicated to a kami of long life.
A branch shrine located in Kagoshima enshrines the spirit of Shimazu Yoshihisa as an avatar of that same kami deity; Tagayama Park, the former site of Tôfukuji castle, and home to a second grave of Admiral Tôgô Heihachirô, takes its name from this shrine.
