歷史沿革
六興宮為王得祿將軍所創建，據傳其源起和新港奉天宮、北港朝天宮有密切關係，皆是繼承笨港天后宮的三尊媽祖神像而來。
相傳嘉慶2年(1797)笨港溪(今新港溪)氾濫，沖毀笨港市街和嘉義地區最早的媽祖廟-笨港天后宮。而原本奉祀在廟中的三尊媽祖神像，在嘉慶16年(1811)，王得祿倡建的新港「奉天宮」落成之前，只好暫時安奉於土地公廟中，道光6年(1826)新港奉天宮與北港朝天宮爭相奉祀媽祖神像，經王得祿將軍調解，將大媽奉祀於新港奉天宮，二媽奉祀於北港朝天宮，三媽則由王得祿將軍請回溪北自宅奉祀。之後王將軍在自宅左側(今新港鄉溪北村3號-1創建新廟，期許廟宇所在的溪北及月眉、月潭、安和、後厝仔、六斗仔六個村莊興盛，故取名為「六興宮」。
1906年，嘉義大地震，造成六興宮倒塌毀壞。大正3年(1914)，王得祿後代王順記與江濟振、李烏沙等人出資，聘請名匠陳應彬改於現址(新港鄉溪北村65號)重建六興宮。之後民國40(1951)年六興宮擴建，持續到民國50(1961)年，始完成六興宮的現貌。
