  • 鹿港天后宮，又稱鹿港媽祖宮、鹿港湄洲媽，前身為鹿港天妃廟，是臺灣彰化縣鹿港鎮的信仰中心，是臺灣最早唯一奉祀湄洲天后宮天上聖母開基聖母神尊的廟宇，此尊湄洲島天上聖母（開基二媽）是清代福建水師提督施琅將軍迎奉來台，也是世界僅存的湄洲開基天上聖母神尊。鹿港天后宮是臺灣歷史悠久的知名廟宇之一，至今三百多年，目前由中華民國文化部評定為國定古蹟。 雍正三年（1725）前述媽祖宮在施琅未入台前，即已有小廟。康熙二十二年（1683）靖海將軍施琅攻台時，其部將興化鎮總兵吳英、海壇鎮總兵林賢、水師提標隨征都督陳蟒、魏明、水師提標右營遊擊藍理、海壇鎮標中營遊擊許英等攜帶聖母神像來台以求平安，施琅亦自湄洲嶼請湄洲媽來台。當施琅於翌年班師之際，其族姪施世榜請留神像在鹿港，以供士民參拜、許之，於是各地善男信女，不辭路途遙遠，來廟參拜者，日益增加，香火隨之鼎盛。雍正三年（1725）由於廟地狹隘卑溼，不敷使用，施世榜乃獻地，由諸信徒捐貲蓋廟，後改為磚造，廟門正對湄洲天后宮（祖廟），故亦稱鹿港天后宮。 (zh)
